ToolStripProgressBar appears multiple times?

[matt65]

I am having an issue where each time I set a Value to the progress bar, a new bar is painted in the StatusStrip control on my WinForm.

I am using default properties for both the StatusStrip and ToolStripProgre ssBar.

Setting two values during a process of 20 and 60, I see a bar for each value.

Any suggestions are appreciated

I think you want to change Scrolling to 1 to give it a smooth appearance when incremented. See what that does for you.

By "scrolling" you mean the "step" property? I've tried that, but it's not a question of how smooth it displays, but rather that each value sent displays a separate instance of the progress bar within the status strip. Thanks for the suggestion though

Ok, the way I increment progress bars (in VB.NET) is not through the Value property:
If theres a fixed incremental step, set the Step value to it then call PerformStep.
If its variable, call Increment(n) passing in the value (n) it should increment by.

Other than that, show us your code if that doesnt do it.

Matt, could you show us the code in question?
