Progress Bar and visibility problem

[JulioR]

Hi,

I'm trying to work with the new control but with some problems related with the radProgressBarElement item (Visibility property).

When I set the Visibility property to Hidden, and then resize the form, the progress bar appear again. I have test this on your sample application for the status bar. I have solved this problem with the SizeChanged event on the main form. On the other hand, each time I try to hidde the progress bar item is not working  well (it is hidden and suddenly is visible again). Do you have any idea about this wrong behaviors?

Regards,

Julio

Hi JulioR,

Thank you for writing.

This issue comes from logic in the RadStatusStrip.

There are two ways to avoid this behavior:

    1. Change RadStatusStrip property to Overflow mode as shown below:

        this.radStatusBar1.LayoutStyle = RadStatusBarLayoutStyle.Overflow;

    2. Remove ProgressBar from RadStatusStrip items collection as shown below:

        RadItem progessBar;
        void HideProgressBar()
        {
                    this.progessBar = this.radStatusBar1.Items[5]; //#5 is ProgressBar
                    this.radStatusBar1.Items.RemoveAt(5);
        }

        void ShowProgressBar()
        {
                    if (!this.radStatusBar1.Items.Contains(this.progessBar))
                    this.radStatusBar1.Items.Insert(5, this.progessBar);
        }

I hope this helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
