Description
The purpose of GtkProgressBar is to show the
user the progress of a long-running operation. It can be used in two
modes: a percentage mode or an
activity mode.
The percentage mode should be used when the
application can in advance determine the total amount of work that
will be done. As the operation progresses the application should
update the bar widget with the amount of work completed so far. The
widget will reflect this by displaying a growing percentage bar.
The activity mode is useful when the application
cannot determine the total amount of work and instead simply wishes
to provide an indication that an operation is in progress. In this
mode, the widget will display a block moving back and forth in the
progress area.
