Content Model: StatusBar is a ItemsControl. Its content properties are Items and ItemsSource. For more information on the content model for StatusBar, see Controls Content Model Overview.
A StatusBar is a bar that typically displays a horizontal row of images and status information. You can divide the items in a StatusBar into groups that contain related items, by using Separator controls. The items in a StatusBar can display text, graphics, or other complex content. Items in a StatusBar are defined as StatusBarItem objects.
Events that are defined on a StatusBarItem are raised when the user clicks the item in the StatusBar.
The StatusBar does not receive keyboard focus.
The following illustration shows an example of a StatusBar.

Dependency properties for this control might be set by the control’s default style. If a property is set by a default style, the property might change from its default value when the control appears in the application. The default style is determined by which desktop theme is used when the application is running. For more information, see Themes.
The following example creates a StatusBar.
