Winforms StatusStrip - why are there periods where it is blank when I'm updating it???
- by Greg
Hi,
BACKGROUND: I have a WindowForms v3.5 application with a StatusStrip set to be used as a TooStripStatusLabel. I'm issues quite a lot of updates to it during a task that is running, however there are noticable periods where it is BLANK. There are no points when I am writing a blank to the status strip label either.
QUESTION: Any ideas why I would be seeing period where the status strip label is blank, when I don't expect it to be?
How I update it:
private void UpdateStatusStrip(string text)
{
toolStripStatusLabel1.Text = text;
toolStripStatusLabel1.Invalidate();
this.Update();
}
thanks
