Unable to see status bar

问题

I was just trying to create a window with Status bar and I am not able to see the status bar with as simple code as below. Could anyone tell me what could be the cause? or is it happening only in machine! I restarted VS and also my machine. I am using VS2013 Express edition

<Window x:Class="TemplateBindingSample.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<DockPanel>
    <StatusBar DockPanel.Dock="Bottom">
    </StatusBar>
    <Label>StatusBar Example</Label>
</DockPanel>

回答1:

You declared the Label outside of StatusBar. A statusbar without Child cannot be seen, since the ActualHeight would be 0. To solve the problem, put the Label inside the StatusBar.

<DockPanel>
    <StatusBar DockPanel.Dock="Bottom">
        <Label>StatusBar Example</Label>
    </StatusBar>
</DockPanel>

回答2:

The StatusBar in your sample is empty and therefore has no height.

If you insert some content it should be displayed. For example:

<DockPanel>
    <StatusBar DockPanel.Dock="Bottom">
            <Label>Status Bar Text</Label>
    </StatusBar>
    <Label>StatusBar Example</Label>
</DockPanel>
