I dont think thats right Mana. He wants a bar that continually has 2 "chunks" moving round. so doesnt actually display progress, just shows that it is "working"

Oh, maybe so. I admit I wasn't quite clear on the meaning of "indeterminate". But I think I understand now.

Well, this type of progressbars are defined as "indeterminate" by wikipedia and the Microsoft Developer Network. But I still didn't get the answer to my question. :cry:

Let's see, how about this then?

Quote:
PBS_MARQUEE - 0x8 - [Requires Windows XP or later] The progress bar moves like a marquee; that is, each change to its position causes the bar to slide further along its available length until it wraps around to the other side. A bar with this style has no defined position. Each attempt to change its position will instead slide the bar by one increment.

This style is typically used to indicate an ongoing operation whose completion time is unknown.


Here's a quick script demonstrating that:
Code:
#Persistent

Gui, Add, Progress, w150 h16 -Smooth vWorking +0x8
Gui Show
SetTimer Scroll, 100
Return

Scroll:
GuiControl,, Working, +1
Return

GuiClose:
ExitApp

Gui, Show
SetTimer, Progress, 75
Return

GuiControl, ,Pro, %A_TickCount%
Return

There is no need for SetTimer:
Code:
PBM_SETMARQUEE := 0x40a ;wm_user + 10
Gui, Add, Progress, x10 y10 w300 h15 HwndpHwnd1 -Smooth +0x8  ;0x8 =  PBS_MARQUEE
Gui, Show
PostMessage, PBM_SETMARQUEE, 1, 38, , ahk_id %pHwnd1% ;_wParam-Bool (1 = start , 0 = stop),lParam-Time (ms) between animation updates.
Return ;

GuiClose:
ExitApp

Dear Manauser, :)

Yes, your code works for me in XP SP2.

Quote:
#Persistent
If this directive is present anywhere in the script, that script will stay running after the auto-execute section (top part of the script) completes. This is useful in cases where a script contains timers and/or custom menu items but not hotkeys, hotstrings, or any use of OnMessage() or Gui.


in other words,

when a script contains hotkey,hotstrings,Onmessage() or Gui it automatically becomes Persistent.

:)
