Padre::Wx::StatusBar(3)

NAME
Padre::Wx::StatusBar - Encapsulates status bar customizations

DESCRIPTION
"Padre::Wx::StatusBar" implements Padre's status bar. It is the bottom pane holding various, err, status information on Padre.

The information shown are (in order):

•   File name of current document, with a leading star if file has been updated and not saved

•   (Optional) Icon showing status of background tasks

•   (Optional) MIME type of current document

•   Type of end of lines of current document

•   Position in current document

It inherits from "Wx::StatusBar", so check Wx documentation to see all the available methods that can be applied to it besides the added ones (see below).

METHODS

  "new"
    my $statusbar = Padre::Wx::StatusBar->new( $main );

Create and return a new Padre status bar. One should pass the $main Padre window as argument, to get a reference to the status bar parent.

  "clear"
    $statusbar->clear;

Clear all the status bar fields, i.e. they will display an empty string in all fields.

  "say"

Temporarily overwrite only the leftmost filename part of the status bar.

It will return to it's normal value when the status bar is next refreshed for normal reasons (such as a keystroke or a file panel switch).

    $statusbar->refresh;

  "on_resize"
    $statusbar->on_resize( $event );
