Category: BGI GUI

Syntax:

bgiCreateStatusBar:Int(text:String, x:Int, y:Int, width:Int, height:Int, parentWin:Int)

• text : String
• x : Int
• y : Int
• width : Int
• height : Int
• parentWin : Int

Int

Creates a status bar: a line of text along the bottom of a window.

Takes text (String), x (Int), y (Int), width (Int), height (Int) and parentWin (Int).

Returns gizmo ID on success, 0 if parent not found.

The position and size are not used for layout: as on Windows, the status bar runs along the bottom of its parent at full width, one line of text tall. (bgiGetGizmoX and the others still report what was given.) Change the text with bgiSetGizmoText.
