RainbowStatus 1.0 ActiveX Controls

RainbowStatus Features

  • Panel styles that users of the Visual Basic status control are accustomed to using, such as date, time, and keyboard indicators (caps, scrl, num).
  • Ability to place an image in each panel.
  • Font, ForeColor, and BackColor properties for each panel.
  • Ability to draw a panel's background with a tiled image or a horizontal or
    vertical gradient.
  • Intrinsic ProgressBar-panel support, which uses the RainbowProgress control, so
    you can customize a statusbar panel's ProgressBar in every way you can with
    the RainbowProgress control itself.
  • Optional automatic sizing of statusbar panels (none, some, or all).
  • Panels can optionally allow themselves to be resized using the mouse, the
    way a splitter bar is sized.

RainbowProgress Features

  • Customization of background, fill, and border colors and styles.
  • Change the bevel size, and the distance between the border and the fill of
    the progress indicator.
  • Fill in any of four directions (left-to-right, right-to-left,
    top-to-bottom, bottom-to-top).
  • Min and Max properties that use 32-bit (Long) values.
  • Caption, Font, and ForeColor properties for text customization.
