Methods

impl Taskbar

pub fn new() -> Result<Self>

pub fn set_progress_state(
    &mut self,
    window: &mut Window,
    state: ProgressState
) -> Result<()>

Sets the progress state taskbar animation of a window.

Examples

Warning: On Windows 7 (and possibly newer versions as well), when changing the progress state too quickly, the change may be ignored. As a workaround, you can sleep for a short time:

use winapi_easy::ui::{
    ProgressState,
    Taskbar,
    Window,
};

use std::thread;
use std::time::Duration;

let mut window = Window::get_console_window().expect("Cannot get console window");
let mut taskbar = Taskbar::new()?;

taskbar.set_progress_state(&mut window, ProgressState::Indeterminate)?;
thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(20));
taskbar.set_progress_state(&mut window, ProgressState::NoProgress)?;

pub fn set_progress_value(
    &mut self,
    window: &mut Window,
    completed: u64,
    total: u64
) -> Result<()>

Sets the completion amount of the taskbar progress state animation.
