There is a win7 application which can show a progress bar on the win7 task bar.

I was wondering how is it implemented. Is there any Win32 API can do this?

  • That is indeed a [DeskBand](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144099.aspx), however do note that the [DeskBand Shell interfaces are deprecated](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/jj635743.aspx) as of Windows 7. – Remy Lebeau Mar 25 '14 at 22:16

You should inhert CProgressCtrl class and redraw the control. Handle WM_PAINT message as painting the control in OnPaint function.
