Detailed Description

Display status messages.

You can insert text labels or custom widgets. Their geometry is managed internally. KStatusBar resizes itself, but positioning is left to KMainWindow (or to you, if you don't use KMainWindow ).

A special type of item is a message which is a temporary text-message displayed on top of other items in full-width. Messages are visible for specified time, or until you call the slot QStatusBar::clear(). See QStatusBar::message for details.

KStatusBar inherits QStatusBar, you can freely use all QStatusBar methods.

Empty text items are not visible. They will become visible when you change (add) text.
