AnimatedProgressBar
The AnimatedProgressBar includes all the features of the native WPF ProgressBar, plus the following features:
- Support for multiple states
- Smooth animation of value changes
- Support for a continuous indicator (in themes that normally use a segmented indicator)
The AnimatedProgressBar control using the Aero theme in the three possible states, Normal, Paused, and Error
The AnimatedProgressBar control using the Luna NormalColor theme showing a segmented indicator and a continuous indicator
The OperationState enumeration holds all the valid states, each of which is rendered using a distinct color.
By default, the AnimatedProgressBar will animate Value changes. This differs from the native WPF ProgressBar, which "jumps" to the new Value. The smooth animation of the AnimatedProgressBar can be disabled by setting IsAnimationEnabled to false. In which case, the AnimatedProgressBar will also "jump" to the new Value.
