10 @class wxGauge
11
12 A gauge is a horizontal or vertical bar which shows a quantity (often
13 time).
14
15 wxGauge supports two working modes: determinate and indeterminate progress.
16
17 The first is the usual working mode (see SetValue() and SetRange()) while
18 the second can be used when the program is doing some processing but you
19 don't know how much progress is being done. In this case, you can
20 periodically call the Pulse() function to make the progress bar switch to
21 indeterminate mode (graphically it's usually a set of blocks which move or
22 bounce in the bar control).
23
24 wxGauge supports dynamic switch between these two work modes.
25
26 There are no user commands for the gauge.

30 Creates a horizontal gauge.
31 @style{wxGA_VERTICAL}
32 Creates a vertical gauge.
33 @style{wxGA_SMOOTH}
34 Creates smooth progress bar with one pixel wide update step (not
35 supported by all platforms).
