I'm working on a .NET solution with an unmanaged EXE. This means, i have no VisualStyles enabled.
I'm trying to use a marquee progessbar without using EnabledVisualStyles(). What happened is that my progressbar appears without any animation.

Should be like this:
Do you know if this is possible at all? And is there any workaround?
Create User Control, take one panel in it, dock it in parent container. Take one timer control. Your user control code should like:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace ProgressBar
{
public partial class PBar : UserControl
{
public PBar()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void panel1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
}
int incre = 0;
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int width = 15;
int gap = 5;
Graphics g = panel1.CreateGraphics();
g.Clear(panel1.BackColor);
SolidBrush blueBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.DarkBlue);
g.FillRectangle(blueBrush, new Rectangle(new Point(incre, 0), new Size(width, panel1.Height - 1)));
g.FillRectangle(blueBrush, new Rectangle(new Point(incre + width + gap, 0), new Size(width, panel1.Height - 1)));
g.FillRectangle(blueBrush, new Rectangle(new Point(incre + 2 * (width + gap), 0), new Size(width, panel1.Height - 1)));
g.FillRectangle(blueBrush, new Rectangle(new Point(incre + 3* (width + gap), 0), new Size(width, panel1.Height - 1)));
incre += 10;
if (incre > panel1.Width)
incre = 0;
}
}
}
Build your application and drag your user control in your form. Modify code and variable's values as per your requirement.
