StatusBar
This control enables you to create a status bar.
Control Styles
These control styles are available when creating a StatusBar control. Remember that the general styles disabled, group, hidden, notheme, tabstop and transparent apply to all DCX controls except the embedded Dialog and Window controls.
grip | Status bar displays a sizing grip.
noauto | Prevents the statusbar from being auto-positioned and resized by the parent window. The user will be responsible for the positioning and resizing of the statusbar.
noparentalign | Status isn't auto-positioned when dialog's size changes.
noresize | Status isn't auto-resized when dialog's size changes
tooltips | Status bar has tooltips (tooltips only work for cells that have no text or cells where the text does not fit in the cell width).
top | The statusbar is auto-positioned at top of dialog window.
/xdid flags
Control commands are input to the control with the /xdid command.
/xdid -k
This command lets you set the status bar background color.
Syntax: | /xdid -k [DNAME] [ID] [RGB]
Example: | /xdid -k dcx 4 $rgb(255,0,0)
Note. You can use -1 for RGB to revert to default color. This command will only work if the computer has no visual styles applied (XP themes). To use this on machines with visual styles enabled, apply the notheme style.
/xdid -l
This command lets you set the width of status bar cells. A value of -1 will cause the cell to automatically stretch, filling the remainding space. Values can also be a percentage, such as 20%.
Syntax: | /xdid -l [DNAME] [ID] [POS] (POS POS ...)
Example: | /xdid -l dcx 4 10% 200 400 -1
/xdid -t
This command lets you set the icon, text and tooltip of a statusbar cell. Child controls could also be created in place of a statusbar cell.
Syntax: | /xdid -t [DNAME] [ID] [N] [+FLAGS] [#ICON] (Cell Text) $chr(9) (Tooltip)
Example: | /xdid -t dcx 4 2 +p 0 Cell Text $chr(9) Tooltip Text
Parameters:
N | Status bar cell number to modify.
+FLAGS | Status bar cell flags.
c | Allows you to add controls to the statusbar (requires different syntax). Use H of for default size.
f | Supports mIRC formatted text.
p | Popup style border around cell.
n | No borders around cell.
#ICON | Icon number for the statusbar cell (0 for no icon)
Variable parameters ARGS:
c | [N] [+c] [#ICON] [CID] [CONTROL] [X] [Y] [W] [H] (STYLES)
CONTROL | The type of DCX Control to create. Values can be: button, calendar, comboex, datetime, directshow, ipaddress, listview, pbar, richedit, statusbar, toolbar, trackbar, treeview, updown, webctrl box, check, edit, image, line, link, list, radio, scroll, text divider, pager, panel, rebar, stacker or tab.

Y | The Y-offset of the control is ignored but required.
W | The width of the control is ignored but required.
H | The height of the control. The cell height is used if a value of 0 is supplied.

This command lets you change the text of a statusbar cell.
Syntax: | /xdid -v [DNAME] [ID] [N] (TEXT)
Example: | /xdid -v dcx 4 2 New Text
/xdid -w
This command lets you add an icon to the statusbar image list.
