class: ProgressBar

[115:7] extends: ProgressIndicator

The ProgressBar class wraps the JavaFX ProgressBar control, a horizontal bar that visually represents the progress of a long-running operation. It extends ProgressIndicator and renders progress as a filled bar rather than a circular spinner. The bar fills from left to right as the progress value increases from 0.0 (empty) to 1.0 (full). Setting progress to a negative value switches the bar into indeterminate mode, displaying an animated pattern to indicate that the total duration is unknown. This wrapper defaults progress to 0.0 to avoid the resource-heavy indeterminate animation on startup.

CSS Pseudo-classes -- ProgressBar

Pseudo-class Description
determinate Applies when the indeterminate property is false (a specific progress value is set).
indeterminate Applies when the indeterminate property is true (progress is negative or unknown).

CSS Properties -- ProgressBar

Property Values Default Description
-fx-indeterminate-bar-length <number> 60 Length of the animated indicator segment shown in indeterminate mode.
-fx-indeterminate-bar-escape true | false true When true, the animated segment bounces at the edges of the bar.
-fx-indeterminate-bar-flip true | false true When true, the animated segment flips direction when it reaches an edge.
-fx-indeterminate-bar-animation-time <number> 2.0 Seconds for one complete cycle of the indeterminate animation.

CSS Properties -- Control

Property Values Default Description
-fx-skin <string> null Fully qualified class name of the Skin to use for rendering this control.
-fx-focus-traversable true | false false When true, the control participates in focus traversal via the keyboard Tab key. Default is false for ProgressBar.

CSS Properties -- Region

Background fills

Property Values Default Description
-fx-background-color <paint> [, <paint>]* transparent One or more paint values for background fill layers, rendered back to front.
-fx-background-insets <size> or <t> <r> <b> <l> [, ...]* 0 0 0 0 Insets from the region edges for each background fill layer.
-fx-background-radius <size> [/ <size>]* [, ...]* 0 0 0 0 Corner radii for each background fill layer.

Background images

Property Values Default Description
-fx-background-image <uri> [, <uri>]* null One or more image URIs for background image layers.
-fx-background-position <bg-position> [, ...]* 0% 0% Position of each background image within the region. Accepts keywords or size values.

-fx-background-size <bg-size> [, ...]* auto auto Dimensions for each background image. Supports cover, contain, stretch, or explicit sizes.

Stroked borders

Property Values Default Description
-fx-border-color <paint> or <t> <r> <b> <l> [, ...]* null Paint colors for the border stroke layers.
-fx-border-insets <size> or <t> <r> <b> <l> [, ...]* null Insets from region edges for each border layer.
-fx-border-radius <size> [, ...]* null Corner radii for border stroke layers.
-fx-border-style <border-style> [, ...]* null Border line style (solid, dotted, dashed) plus phase and line cap/join options per layer.
-fx-border-width <size> or <t> <r> <b> <l> [, ...]* null Thickness of each border stroke layer, per side.

-fx-position-shape true | false true When true, the shape is centered within the region.
-fx-snap-to-pixel true | false true When true, positions and sizes are rounded to whole pixel boundaries.
-fx-min-width <size> -1 Minimum width. -1 uses the computed minimum.
-fx-pref-width <size> -1 Preferred width. -1 uses the computed preferred.
-fx-max-width <size> -1 Maximum width. -1 uses the computed maximum.
-fx-min-height <size> -1 Minimum height. -1 uses the computed minimum.

-fx-effect <effect> null A visual effect (e.g. DropShadow, InnerShadow) applied to the rendered node.
-fx-focus-traversable true | false false Whether this node participates in focus traversal. Overridden to true by Control.
-fx-view-order <number> 0 Adjusts rendering and hit-test order within the parent without changing the scene graph order.
-fx-opacity <number> [0.0 - 1.0] 1 Opacity of the node. 0 is fully transparent, 1 is fully opaque.
