Based on the StatusBar control featured in Microsoft's Common Controls,
Ariad's StatusBarX component builds on this and adds more.

StatusBarX supports most of the functionality of the StatusBar control, but
adds dozens of new features such as full control over color, extra border styles
including the new flat style supported by Visual Studio 7, extra panel behavior
styles such as ProgressBar, ability to reposition panels at runtime using CloneItem
and SwapItem methods, pictures which aren't scaled out of proportion,
automatic client sizing, panel related events and much more.
