The Exontrol ExStatusBar Component adds fully customizable status bar panels to your forms or dialogs. A status bar is a common UI element typically located at the bottom of a window, divided into sections that display various types of information. Its primary role is to present real-time feedback about the application's state - such as current modes, messages, or keyboard shortcuts - enhancing the user experience. In addition to its core purpose, ExStatusBar extends traditional functionality by supporting advanced features like HTML rendering, skinning, progress indicators, ActiveX hosting, and more, making it much more than a simple status line.

1. Layout & Customization

2. Content & Display
