This object is generally used to display information to the user at the bottom of the form. You can split up the bar into panels, each of which can be individually modified. The panels that make up the menu are actually TStatusPanel objects. You create those by using the Status Bar Panel Editor. The icon for this object is on the Additional page.

Misc
Other
| AutoHint | If this property is checked (set to .True.) then any Hints that would normally be displayed at the cursor location for any objects on the form will be displayed in the status bar. This gives the user a single place to look for hints and keeps them from covering up other objects on the form. This property can be changed during runtime. |
| Panels | By editing this property you can split the status bar into separate panels. These panels can be updated during runtime by using the STATUS_BAR() function. |
| SimplePanel | If you want a single panel to appear on the status bar and not have it broken into multiple panels then check this property (set to .True.). Any panels you have created with the Status Bar Panel Editor will not be displayed. This property can be modified during runtime. |
| SimpleText | If the SimplePanel property is checked (set to .True.) then you can put the text you want displayed in this property. This can be modified during runtime. |
| SizeGrip | If you check this property (set to .True.) a glyph will be displayed on the right side bottom of the status bar to alert the user that the bar can be resized during runtime. This only works if it's on a normal form. The default value is .True. This property can be modified during runtime. |
| UseSystemFont | If this property is checked (set to .True.) the text displayed on the status bar will use the current system font. The default value is .True. This can be modified during runtime. |
Position
| Align | The default value for this object is alBottom. |
