Property Value

Type: System.Double
A value that indicates the fullness of the progress indicator in the taskbar button. The default is 0.

Remarks

The ProgressValue property is represented as a value between 0.0 and 1.0. Numbers smaller and larger are coerced to be within those bounds. NaN is coerced to 0.

You can communicate the progress of long-running tasks by displaying a progress indicator in a Windows 7 taskbar button. The color of the indicator is determined by the ProgressState property, which contains one of the TaskbarItemProgressState enumeration values. If the ProgressState property is Normal, Paused, or Error, the ProgressValue property determines the fullness of the progress indicator. ProgressValue is ignored for some values of ProgressState. Indeterminate shows a pulsing green indicator across the entire taskbar button. No indicator is shown for None.

The following illustration shows the taskbar progress indicator with a ProgressValue of 82 percent.
