Answer 1

Here is one way to do it using a modified version of the ProgressBars default Template. It contains two TextBlocks

• The first TextBlock is the black one
• The second TextBlock is the white one. This TextBlock has the Width of the full control and Clip set to the Width of the progress part

The text of the ProgressBar is binding to the Tag property. Usable like this.

RectConverter

public class RectConverter : IMultiValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object[] values, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        double width = (double)values[0];
        double height = (double)values[1];
        return new Rect(0, 0, width, height);
    }
    public object[] ConvertBack(object value, Type[] targetTypes, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}
