10 @class wxProgressDialog
11
12 This class represents a dialog that shows a short message and a
13 progress bar. Optionally, it can display ABORT and SKIP buttons,
14 the elapsed, remaining and estimated time for the end of the progress.
15
16 @beginStyleTable
17 @style{wxPD_APP_MODAL}
18 Make the progress dialog modal. If this flag is not given, it is
19 only "locally" modal - that is the input to the parent window is
20 disabled, but not to the other ones.
21 @style{wxPD_AUTO_HIDE}
22 Causes the progress dialog to disappear from screen as soon as the
23 maximum value of the progress meter has been reached.
24 @style{wxPD_SMOOTH}
25 Causes smooth progress of the gauge control.
26 @style{wxPD_CAN_ABORT}
27 This flag tells the dialog that it should have a "Cancel" button
28 which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to
29 Update() will return @false.
30 @style{wxPD_CAN_SKIP}
31 This flag tells the dialog that it should have a "Skip" button
32 which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to
33 Update() will return @true in its skip parameter.
34 @style{wxPD_ELAPSED_TIME}
35 This flag tells the dialog that it should show elapsed time (since
36 creating the dialog).
37 @style{wxPD_ESTIMATED_TIME}
38 This flag tells the dialog that it should show estimated time.
39 @style{wxPD_REMAINING_TIME}
40 This flag tells the dialog that it should show remaining time.
