Percentage Progessbar

[Guest]

Hi

Is there anyway to display the percentage value completed in a Progressbar.
I've found a Microsoft link
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/323116/EN-US/
to create a smooth progessbar but there is no percent propery.

Thanks

The Value property accepts a 0-100 value.

by default the value range is a percentage (min = 0 and max = 100)

Inside the Value() method, call another (new) method to calculate the
percentage, build the representing string and paint the representig string
onto the appropriate position inside Value()'s newValueRect. You might want
to introduce a new property for the color to use (like
"percentageStringColor" similar to ProgressBarColor. Be sure to invalidate
the area you paint the String on.

Use the OnPaint() method instead of the Value() method.

You might use this.ClientRectangle instead
And add another Property for the text font.

or just say:
myProgressBar.Value = (int) ( percentage * 100 );

I don't see why this would make the ProgressBar display the string "43%"...
