ttk::progressbar(n)						 Tk Themed Widget					       ttk::progressbar(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       ttk::progressbar - Provide progress feedback

SYNOPSIS

       ttk::progressbar pathName ?options?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       A  ttk::progressbar  widget shows the status of a long-running operation.  They can operate in two modes: determinate mode shows the amount
       completed relative to the total amount of work to be done, and indeterminate mode provides an animated display to let the  user	know  that
       something is happening.

STANDARD OPTIONS

       -class		     -cursor		  -takefocus
       -style

       See the ttk_widget manual entry for details on the standard options.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
       [-orient orient]  One  of horizontal or vertical.  Specifies the orientation of the progress bar.  [-length length] Specifies the length of
       the long axis of the progress bar (width if horizontal, height if vertical).  [-mode mode] One of determinate  or  indeterminate.   [-maxi-
       mum maximum]  A	floating  point  number specifying the maximum -value.	Defaults to 100.  [-value value] The current value of the progress
       bar.  In determinate mode, this represents the amount of work completed.  In indeterminate mode, it is interpreted  modulo  -maximum;  that
       is, the progress bar completes one "cycle" when the -value increases by -maximum.  [-variable variable] The name of a Tcl variable which is
       linked to the -value.  If specified, the -value of the progress bar is automatically set to the value of the variable whenever  the  latter
       is  modified.  [-phase phase] Read-only option.	The widget periodically increments the value of this option whenever the -value is greater
       than 0 and, in determinate mode, less than -maximum.  This option may be used by the current theme to provide additional animation effects.

WIDGET COMMAND

       pathName cget option
	      Returns the current value of the specified option; see ttk::widget(n).

       pathName configure ?option? ?value option value ...?
	      Modify or query widget options; see ttk::widget(n).

       pathName identify x y
	      Returns the name of the element at position x, y.  See ttk::widget(n).

       pathName instate statespec ?script?
	      Test the widget state; see ttk::widget(n).

       pathName start ?interval?
	      Begin autoincrement mode: schedules a recurring timer event that calls step  every  interval  milliseconds.   If	omitted,  interval
	      defaults to 50 milliseconds (20 steps/second).

       pathName state ?stateSpec?
	      Modify or query the widget state; see ttk::widget(n).

       pathName step ?amount?
	      Increments the -value by amount.	amount defaults to 1.0 if omitted.

       pathName stop
	      Stop autoincrement mode: cancels any recurring timer event initiated by pathName start.
