# NAME
notcurses_progbar - high level widget for progress bars
# SYNOPSIS
**#include <notcurses/notcurses.h>**
```c
struct ncprogbar;
#define NCPROGBAR_OPTION_RETROGRADE 0x0001u // proceed left/down
typedef struct ncprogbar_options {
uint64_t maxchannels;
uint64_t minchannels;
uint64_t flags;
} ncprogbar_options;
```
**struct ncprogbar* ncprogbar_create(struct ncplane* ***n***, const ncprogbar_options* ***opts***)**
**struct ncplane* ncprogbar_plane(struct ncprogbar* ***n***)**
**int ncprogbar_set_progress(struct ncprogbar* ***n***, double ***p***)**
**double ncprogbar_progress(const struct ncprogbar* ***n***)**
**void ncprogbar_destroy(struct ncprogbar* ***n***)**
# DESCRIPTION
These functions draw progress bars in any of four directions. The progress
measure is a **double** between zero and one, inclusive, provided to
**ncprogbar_set_progress**. This will be scaled to the size of the provided
ncplane ***n***. The axis of progression is the longer element of the plane's
geometry. Horizontal bars proceed to the right by default, and vertical bars
proceed up. This can be changed with **NCPROGBAR_OPTION_RETROGRADE**.
# NOTES
**ncprogbar_create** takes ownership of ***n*** in all cases. On failure,
***n*** will be destroyed immediately. It is otherwise destroyed by
**ncprogbar_destroy**.
# RETURN VALUES
**ncprogbar_plane** returns the **ncplane** on which the progress bar is drawn.
**ncprogbar_progress** returns the current progress, a value between zero and
one, inclusive. They cannot fail.
**ncprogbar_set_progress** returns -1 if ***p*** is less than zero or greater
than one, or if there is an internal error redrawing the progress bar. It
returns 0 otherwise.
# BUGS
Whether progression is to the left or right by default probably ought be an
aspect of the current locale.
