progressbar position inside statusstrip

[Carlitos]

Hi, 

Is it possible to place the progressbar inside the statusstrip to the right hand side? Seems all the controls at the bottom are placed from left to right. But I would like to have some on the right, and some on the left. 

Thanks,

Hello Carlitos,

Thank you for writing.

This can be achieved by dynamically setting the Margin of the progress bar when the form is resized. For example:

private void RadForm1_SizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int totalWidth = radStatusStrip1.Width;

    int elementsWidth = 0;
    foreach (RadItem item in radStatusStrip1.Items)
    {
        elementsWidth += item.Size.Width;
    }
    int emptySpace = totalWidth - elementsWidth;

    if (emptySpace > 0)
    {
        radStatusStrip1.Items[radStatusStrip1.Items.Count - 1].Margin = new System.Windows.Forms.Padding(emptySpace-25, 0, 0, 0);// 25 pixels for the size grip
    }

}

Please let me know if there is something else I can help you with.

Hello Carlitos,

It appears that there is an easier way to achieve this. First, you need to add a label with no text before the progress bar. Then you should set the Spring property of the label to true. I have attached an image that shows this approach. 

I hope this will be useful.

Thanks Dimitar for both methods. Your second solution think works the easiest. I found another solution similar to your first one. 

It was this: 

        private void RadFormMainSystem_SizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            var newProgressBarSize = new Size(0, 18);

            var newWidth = radStatusStripSystem.Width - 600;

            newProgressBarSize.Width = newWidth >= 250 ? newWidth : 250;

            radReportProgressBar.Size = newProgressBarSize;
        }

But I will stick with your second solution (as there is no coding to maintain). 

Thanks!
