SetStatusBar()

Summary

Sets the number and size of sections in the status bar.

Syntax

SetStatusBar(array sizes)

Argument Contents
sizes Numbers indicating the width of each section of the status bar

Notes

  • If sizes is null, the status bar is removed from the screen; otherwise, the status bar has as many pieces as there are elements of the sizes array.

  • Widths of each piece are specified as a number of characters, and can be real numbers.

  • The last two sections are used for the Stop and Skip buttons, and their widths can be set to 1; if you want three sections for your own use, you need to create five sections. The buttons are inserted to the right of the first section of the status bar, shifting other sections as necessary.

Example

SetStatusBar({40, 30, 20, 1, 1}) // Three sections in the status bar, plus buttons
SetStatus(1, "@System1", )

Error Codes

Error Type Meaning
Error The sizes array contains non-numeric elements
