<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The TQProgressBar widget provides a horizontal progress bar.
<p>
<p> A progress bar is used to give the user an indication of the
progress of an operation and to reassure them that the application
is still running.
<p> The progress bar uses the concept of <em>steps</em>; you give it the
total number of steps and the number of steps completed so far and
it will display the percentage of steps that have been completed.
You can specify the total number of steps in the constructor or
later with <a href="#setTotalSteps">setTotalSteps</a>(). The current number of steps is set
with <a href="#setProgress">setProgress</a>(). The progress bar can be rewound to the
beginning with <a href="#reset">reset</a>().
<p> If the total is given as 0 the progress bar shows a busy indicator
instead of a percentage of steps. This is useful, for example,
when using <a href="tqftp.html">TQFtp</a> or <a href="tqhttp.html">TQHttp</a> to download items when they are unable to
determine the size of the item being downloaded.

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQProgressBar"></a>TQProgressBar::TQProgressBar ( <a href="tqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0, WFlags&nbsp;f = 0 )
</h3>
Constructs a progress bar.
<p> The total number of steps is set to 100 by default.
<p> The <em>parent</em>, <em>name</em> and widget flags, <em>f</em>, are passed on to
the <a href="tqframe.html#TQFrame">TQFrame::TQFrame</a>() constructor.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#totalSteps-prop">totalSteps</a>.
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQProgressBar-2"></a>TQProgressBar::TQProgressBar ( int&nbsp;totalSteps, <a href="tqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0, WFlags&nbsp;f = 0 )
</h3>
Constructs a progress bar.
<p> The <em>totalSteps</em> is the total number of steps that need to be
completed for the operation which this progress bar represents.
For example, if the operation is to examine 50 files, this value
would be 50. Before examining the first file, call <a href="#setProgress">setProgress</a>(0);
call setProgress(50) after examining the last file.
<p> The <em>parent</em>, <em>name</em> and widget flags, <em>f</em>, are passed to the
<a href="tqframe.html#TQFrame">TQFrame::TQFrame</a>() constructor.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#totalSteps-prop">totalSteps</a> and <a href="#progress-prop">progress</a>.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="centerIndicator"></a>TQProgressBar::centerIndicator () const
</h3><p>Returns TRUE if the indicator string should be centered; otherwise returns FALSE.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#centerIndicator-prop">"centerIndicator"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="indicatorFollowsStyle"></a>TQProgressBar::indicatorFollowsStyle () const
</h3><p>Returns TRUE if the display of the indicator string should follow the GUI style; otherwise returns FALSE.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#indicatorFollowsStyle-prop">"indicatorFollowsStyle"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="percentageVisible"></a>TQProgressBar::percentageVisible () const
</h3><p>Returns TRUE if the current progress value is displayed; otherwise returns FALSE.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#percentageVisible-prop">"percentageVisible"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>int <a name="progress"></a>TQProgressBar::progress () const
</h3><p>Returns the current amount of progress.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#progress-prop">"progress"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>const&nbsp;<a href="tqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="progressString"></a>TQProgressBar::progressString () const
</h3><p>Returns the amount of progress as a string.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#progressString-prop">"progressString"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="reset"></a>TQProgressBar::reset ()<tt> [slot]</tt>
</h3>
Reset the progress bar. The progress bar "rewinds" and shows no
progress.
<p>Examples: <a href="fileiconview-example.html#x890">fileiconview/mainwindow.cpp</a> and <a href="progressbar-example.html#x967">progressbar/progressbar.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setCenterIndicator"></a>TQProgressBar::setCenterIndicator ( bool&nbsp;on )
</h3><p>Sets whether the indicator string should be centered to <em>on</em>.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#centerIndicator-prop">"centerIndicator"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="setIndicator"></a>TQProgressBar::setIndicator ( <a href="tqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;indicator, int&nbsp;progress, int&nbsp;totalSteps )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
</h3>
This method is called to generate the text displayed in the center
(or in some styles, to the left) of the progress bar.
<p> The <em>progress</em> may be negative, indicating that the progress bar
is in the "reset" state before any progress is set.
<p> The default implementation is the percentage of completion or
blank in the reset state. The percentage is calculated based on
the <em>progress</em> and <em>totalSteps</em>. You can set the <em>indicator</em>
text if you wish.
<p> To allow efficient repainting of the progress bar, this method
should return FALSE if the string is unchanged from the last call
to this function.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setIndicatorFollowsStyle"></a>TQProgressBar::setIndicatorFollowsStyle ( bool )
</h3><p>Sets whether the display of the indicator string should follow the GUI style.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#indicatorFollowsStyle-prop">"indicatorFollowsStyle"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setPercentageVisible"></a>TQProgressBar::setPercentageVisible ( bool )
</h3><p>Sets whether the current progress value is displayed.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#percentageVisible-prop">"percentageVisible"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setProgress"></a>TQProgressBar::setProgress ( int&nbsp;progress )<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
</h3><p>Sets the current amount of progress to <em>progress</em>.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#progress-prop">"progress"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setProgress-2"></a>TQProgressBar::setProgress ( int&nbsp;progress, int&nbsp;totalSteps )<tt> [slot]</tt>
</h3>
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
<p> Sets the amount of progress to <em>progress</em> and the total number of
steps to <em>totalSteps</em>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#totalSteps-prop">totalSteps</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setTotalSteps"></a>TQProgressBar::setTotalSteps ( int&nbsp;totalSteps )<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
</h3><p>Sets the total number of steps to <em>totalSteps</em>.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#totalSteps-prop">"totalSteps"</a> property for details.
<h3 class=fn>int <a name="totalSteps"></a>TQProgressBar::totalSteps () const
</h3><p>Returns the total number of steps.
See the <a href="tqprogressbar.html#totalSteps-prop">"totalSteps"</a> property for details.
