Hi everyone

Someone knows who do I display the progress bar in the taskbar?

example:

I don't know how to use this code (I me newbie here): http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd942846.aspx

It's not the easiest thing, but do a search for ITaskBarList and you'll get some examples. ITaskBarList UDF looks useful.

Its possible change the colour of a normal progress bar? (to yellow, red, in case of abort state)

Use the below function to change the color (State).

; 1 = Normal(Green Color), 2 = Error(Red Color) 3 = Pause(Yellow Color)
Func _SetProgressBar_Color($iProgressBarId, $iState)
If @OSBuild < 6000 Then Return SetError(1,0,0); Only works on vista/server08 or higher
_SendMessage(GUICtrlGetHandle($iProgressBarId),0x400 + 16,$iState,0); $PBM_SETSTATE (WM_USER + 16)
EndFunc

EndFunc

yeah, works

but looses the $PBS_SMOOTH

EDIT: this can be implemented with dllcall?:

HWND hWnd = m_Progress.GetSafeHwnd();
::SetWindowTheme(hWnd, NULL, NULL);
m_Progress.StepIt();

Try adding $PBS_SMOOTH to the function like below:

; 1 = Normal(Green Color), 2 = Error(Red Color) 3 = Pause(Yellow Color)
Func _SetProgressBar_Color($iProgressBarId, $iState)
If @OSBuild < 6000 Then Return SetError(1,0,0); Only works on vista/server08 or higher
_SendMessage(GUICtrlGetHandle($iProgressBarId),0x400 + 16 + $PBS_SMOOTH,$iState,0); $PBM_SETSTATE (WM_USER + 16)
EndFunc

_SendMessage(GUICtrlGetHandle($iProgressBarId),0x400 + 16 + $PBS_SMOOTH,$iState,0); $PBM_SETSTATE (WM_USER + 16)
EndFunc

continues without the smooth style

Hoi DiOgo,

I've made a small udf for this function it used AutoItObject to do the trick

http://www.nendsoftware.nl/Taskbarprogress.zip

I've made this a while ago for myself.
It has no comment lines in it but it's very easy to know how it works.

I've you have trouble to use it let me know and I will make a example code.
