Circular progress bar

[Tal]

Hello,

Is there a way to create a circular marquee progress bar (a progress bar with no percentages, that represents a task that is taken place, without knowing how much of it is completed, or how much time will it take)? You can see this control in various microsoft products, such as SQL management studio 2005.

I'm using version 2.1.0.9 of Essential Tools, but I will upgrade very soon. I could not find a mention for this feature in the forums, or in the help files of the latest version.

Thank you very much in advance,

Tal

Hi Tal,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

Yes, it is possible to display circular ProgressBar with our latest public release Essential Studio 2008 Volume 1. Please find the code snippet that is used to display Circular progress bar:

            this.progressBarAdv1.ProgressStyle = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.ProgressBarStyles.WaitingGradient;            this.progressBarAdv1.ProgressFallbackStyle = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.ProgressBarStyles.WaitingGradient;            this.progressBarAdv1.WaitingGradientEnabled = true;            this.progressBarAdv1.WaitingGradientInterval = 80;            this.progressBarAdv1.WaitingGradientWidth = 30;

Please find the simple sample for your reference in the following link:

Hi Fathima,

Thank you for your reply.

I regret to say that it's not the control I was thinking of.

Please view the attached picture file (taken from a site that uses an open-source control).

Is there a way (or planned in the next versions) to make a circular progress bar that is actually circular, and not a line?

Thank you in advance,

Tal
