    \title Progress Bar
    \brief Illustrates how to use timelines to create an animated progress bar.

    \e {Progress Bar} animates rectangles and numbers using timelines.

    \section1 Creating the progress bar

    First, we create an empty project, as described in \l {Creating projects}.
    For the purposes of this example, we call the project \e progressbar.

    In this example, we use two overlapping instances of the preset
    \l{basic-rectangle}{Rectangle} component and an instance of the preset
    \l{Text} component to create the progress bar. There is also a preset
    \l {progress-bar-control}{Progress Bar} component available in
    \uicontrol Components > \uicontrol {Qt Quick Controls}.

    In the \uicontrol Design mode, we drag a \uicontrol Rectangle from
    \uicontrol Components > \uicontrol {Default Components} >
    \uicontrol Basic to the \l {2D} view and modify its size to create the
    background for the progress bar. We change its ID to \e pb_back in
    \l Properties.

    We want to be able to control the background rectangle and the text label
    that was added by the project wizard, so we will use an \uicontrol Item
    component for that. We drag the Item from \uicontrol Components >
    \uicontrol {Default Components} > \uicontrol Basic
    to the \uicontrol {2D} view and change its ID to \e root in
    \uicontrol Properties.

    To make the background and text children of the Item, we drag them
    to the Item in \l Navigator. This enables us to use the anchor
    buttons in \uicontrol Properties > \uicontrol Layout to anchor them to their
    parent. We anchor the background to its parent on all edges, with a 30-pixel
    margin at the top to leave space for the text. We then anchor the text to
    the top of the Item.

    \image progressbar-rectangle.png "Progress bar background in the 2D view"

    We now drag another rectangle on top of the background rectangle in
    \uicontrol Navigator and change its ID to \e pb_front in
    \uicontrol Properties.
    We then anchor the left, top, and bottom of the indicator to its parent with
    5-pixel margins. We leave the right side free because its value needs to
    change for the animation.

    For more information about creating and positioning components, see
    \l {Using Components} and \l {Scalable layouts}.

    \section1 Animating the progress bar elements

    The text label will indicate the progress in numbers and changing color,
    while the indicator rectangle will indicate it by getting wider and
    changing color. To animate the label and indicator, we'll add timelines
    in the \l Timeline view.

    For more information about using the timeline, see
    \l {Creating timeline animations}.

    \section2 Adding color animation

    First, we add a color animation to the \e root component in the \e Root.qml
    file. We select the \imageplus
    button to add a 100-frame timeline to root. You can use the default
    values for all other fields.

    \image progressbar-timeline-settings.png "Timeline settings"

    To start recording a color animation on the timeline, we check that the
    playhead is at frame 0 and then select the \imagerecordfill
    (\uicontrol {Auto Key (K)}) button (or select \key K).

    \image progressbar-timeline.png "Color animation timeline"

    We then set the color at frame 0 to green (\e {#8de98d}) in
    \uicontrol Properties > \uicontrol Text > \uicontrol {Text Color}.
    We can either \l{Picking colors}{pick a color} from the color selector
    or use the \uicontrol {Set Binding} command in the
    \imageactionicon
    (\uicontrol Actions) menu to open the \uicontrol {Binding Editor}.

    We then move the playhead to frame 50 and set the text color to red
    (\e {#de4f4f}). Finally, we move the playhead to frame 100 and set
    the color to yellow (\e {#f0c861}).

    When we deselect the record button to stop recording the timeline, the
    new timeline appears in the view.

    We can drag the playhead along the timeline to see the color animation.

    \section2 Animating the indicator

    We select \e pb_front in \uicontrol Navigator and then select the record
    button again to animate the width of the indicator. At frame 0, we set the
    width to 0 in \uicontrol Properties > \uicontrol {Geometry - 2D} >
    \uicontrol Size. We then move the playhead to 100 frames and set the width
    to 590.

    \image progressbar-timeline-indicator.png "Indicator timeline"

    We will now copy the color animation from the text label to the indicator.
    First, we right-click the text component in the \uicontrol Timeline view to
    open a context menu and select \uicontrol {Copy All Keyframes} to
    copy the keyframe values we specified for the text label.

    Next, we select the indicator in the \uicontrol Navigator, and then select
    \uicontrol {Insert Keyframes for Item} to paste the keyframe
    values to the indicator.

    \image progressbar-timeline-indicator-color.png "Indicator timeline with color animation"

    When we move the playhead, we can see that the color animation is also
    applied to the indicator.

    \section1 Creating a reusable component

    We want the progress bar to be reusable, so we'll move it to a separate
    component file. To make sure that the component will contain the timeline,
    we select \uicontrol {Filter Tree} in \uicontrol Navigator and then
    clear the \uicontrol {Show Only Visible Items} check box to show the
    timeline component in \uicontrol Navigator. We then move the timeline
    component to \e root  to have it moved as a part of the root component.

    Now we can right-click root to open a context menu and select
    \uicontrol {Move Component into Separate File}. We can see the
    properties that will be available from outside of the component.

    \image progressbar-move-component.png "Move Component into Separate File dialog"

    \section1 Exporting properties

    We now select the root component in \uicontrol Navigator, and
    then select \uicontrol {Go into Component} in the context menu to
    open \e Root.qml in the \uicontrol {2D} view.

    We want to use the keyframe value as the value of the text label,
    so we will export it as a \l{Adding property aliases}{property alias}. We
    select \e timeline in \uicontrol Navigator and then \uicontrol Properties >
    \uicontrol Timeline > \uicontrol {Current frame} > \uicontrol Actions >
    \uicontrol {Export Property as Alias}.

    \image progressbar-root-export-property.png "Export keyframe group as a property"

    When we select \e root in \uicontrol Navigator, we can see the
    \e timelineCurrentFrame property on the \uicontrol Bindings tab in the
    \l {Connections} view.
    \uicontrol Bindings. We double-click it to change its name to \e progress.

    \image progressbar-bindings-progress.png "Connections View Bindings tab"

    We will bind some JavaScript to the value of the text label to turn
    it into a running number that reflects the number of the keyframe on the
    timeline. We select the text label in \uicontrol Navigator and then
    select \uicontrol Properties > \uicontrol Text > \uicontrol {Set Binding}
    to open the \uicontrol {Binding Editor}. We set
    \c {Math.round(root.progress)} as the value of the text label.

    When we move back to the top-level file, we can see that the number of the
    current keyframe (0) is displayed as the value of the text label.

    \section1 Animating the progress bar instances

    We want to experiment with different start and end values and easing curves,
    so we copy-paste the progress bar instance twice in the top-level file. We
    use a column layout to lay out the progress bar instances.

    We can now add timelines for each progress bar instance, with different
    settings. We select the \imageplus
    button to add a 4000-frame timeline to the first progress bar instance
    (\e root). We select the \uicontrol Continuous check box so that the
    animation will loop.

    In \uicontrol Properties > \uicontrol Root, we can see the
    \uicontrol progress property that we can animate. If we had
    called the component and property something else, we would
    see the names we gave them here.

    With the playhead in the first frame, we select the record button and
    give the \uicontrol progress property the initial value of \e 5. We then
    move the playhead to frame 2000 and give it the value of \e 95. We
    continue to the last frame and set the value back to \e 5 to have a
    smooth looping animation.

    When we select the \uicontrol {Show Live Preview} button on the
    \uicontrol {2D} view toolbar, we see a running number and moving
    progress indicator of the animated progress bar instance.

    \image progressbar-animated.png

    We now change the settings of the other two progress bar instances. We
    make one of the indicators move from right to left by starting from frame
    100. When all our progress bar instances have been animated, we'll continue
    by specifying easing curves for them.

    For more information about previewing UIs, see
    \l {Validating with target hardware}.

    \section1 Specifying easing curves

    We can add custom easing curves to every keyframe in the animations. First,
    we select the keyframe to add the easing curve to, and then select
    \uicontrol {Edit Easing Curve} in the context menu. We can select several
    keyframes simultaneously if we want to use the same easing curve for them.

    We select the easing curve in the \uicontrol {Easing Curve Editor}.

    \image studio-easing-curve-editor.png "Easing Curve Editor"

    When we apply easing curves to animations, the shape of the keyframe
    marker changes from \imagekeyframelinearactive
    to \imagekeyframemanualbezieractive
    .

    For more information, see \l{Editing easing curves}.
