An enumeration value that indicates how the progress indicator is displayed in the taskbar button. The default is None.
Remarks
You can communicate the progress of long-running tasks by displaying a progress indicator in a Windows 7 taskbar button. The color of the indicator is determined by the ProgressState property, which contains one of the TaskbarItemProgressState enumeration values. When the ProgressState is Normal, the indicator is green. When Paused, the indicator is yellow. When Error, the indicator is red. For these states, the ProgressValue property determines how much of the taskbar button is filled by the progress indicator. ProgressValue is ignored for other values of ProgressState. Indeterminate shows a pulsing green indicator across the entire taskbar button. No indicator is shown for None.
The following illustration shows the taskbar progress indicator in the Normal state.
