Is the indeterminate style supported by TProgressBar in FireMonkey? If so, how do you use the indeterminate style?
On Mac OS, and newer versions of Windows, there are two styles of progress bars. One is the determinate progress bar whereby you know the minimum, maximum, and current value. In this case, the progress bar is generally used to show the percentage completion of a particular task. Firemonkey supports this method by utilizing a TProgressBar's Min, Max, and Value properties.
The other style of progress bar is the indeterminate progress bar. The indeterminate style is used when the values are unable to be determined, but to indicate to the user that a task is in progress. It is generally represented by a progress bar with sliding diagonal lines going through it.
If it's not supported, do you have any suggestions for implementing this in a cross platform way, utilizing FireMonkey?
Edit
I know about TAniIndicator, but that's not appropriate in this case. I'm already showing the user a progress bar for a large task that is broken down into smaller tasks. The caption changes and shows the progress for each part of the task. Some of the sub tasks are indeterminate, so at those times, I'd like to just use the indeterminate style. I don't want to switch between a progress bar and a spinner. It would be too distracting.
This is a common implementation that I've seen in a lot of programs and is possible on each platform natively.
