Detailed Description

KProgressDialog provides a dialog with a text label, a progress bar and an optional cancel button with a KDE look 'n feel. A dialog with a progress bar.

Since knowing how long it can take to complete an action and it is undesireable to show a dialog for a split second before hiding it, there are a few ways to control the timing behavior of KProgressDialog. There is a time out that can be set before showing the dialog as well as an option to autohide or keep displaying the dialog once complete.

All the functionality of KProgress is available through direct access to the progress bar widget via progressBar();
