Progress Bar

A progress bar is a purely informative dialog element (it is not a control). It is used

to display the current state of some lengthy process (copying a partition etc.).

1.5.6 Special Dialog Types

Wizard

A Wizard is a dialog that allows displaying and editing information in several

pages, like the properties dialog. Unlike the latter you can move along the

Wizard’s pages only in a one-after-another fashion. This makes it possible to

make the contents of later pages not fixed, but adjustable to the actions you

perform on earlier pages.

In the lower part of a Wizard page there always are 3 buttons:

•

<Back moves you to the previous page. This button is disabled on the

first page.

•

Next> takes you to the next page. On some pages this button can have

other names. On the last page this button finishes the Wizard and starts

the actions that you have chosen in it.

•

Cancel exits the Wizard and negates all actions you were going to

perform. On some pages this button can have other names.

There is no Help button on Wizard pages. It is unnecessary because on each pa

there is detailed information about the purpose of the pa

e and its controls.

Moreover, there is detailed information about what possibilities you

et if you select

any of controls in any possible state.

Almost all Acronis TrueImage Deluxe windows are Wizard pages.
