The StatusBar component is used to create status bars located at the bottom of the main form.
The component is built from several panels and a window resize button. Status bars are organized as follows:
If the component has only one bar, it is located on the left.
If the component has more than one bar, the first one is located on the left and others are oriented relative to the right side. The bar created earlier is located more to the left.
The ImageIndex and Text properties can be used to set image and text displayed in each bar. Images must be loaded to the component specified in the Images StatusBar component property.
