A proper "Status strip rendered ProgressBar" please ?

here is a starting point: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20584132/change-the-color-of-a-toolstripprogressbar-without-disabling-the-xp-visual-style

Using the above, I have got a "Reasonable colour background" with the following event added to the status strip:

    private void StatusStrip_RendererChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if ( ToolStripManager.Renderer is KryptonProfessionalRenderer kpr )
            progressBar.BackColor= kpr.KCT.StatusStripGradientEnd;
    }

I'll look into it

I wonder if this would help https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/winforms/controls/walkthrough-creating-a-professionally-styled-toolstrip-control

Yep, the renderer thing would need to be in the Components dll, so this issue will need to be transferred

Transferred

That sort of thing would be better in the extended kit, What this request is for, is the standard progress bar, but with the proper krypton rendering applied.

Upon looking into it, yes this request should belong to the standard toolkit. Moving previous link to extended toolkit.

Hi @Smurf-IV

See https://github.com/Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit dev branch.

Didn't see it mentioned, Whilst on the new site, you will need to explain the differences between the "Normal" and "lite" versions...

[PWagner1]

Will do... I don't know how to change the forecolor though, or even if there is a property in KCT to do this.
