# Progress bar

The progress bar widget visualizes the operational status of a task or a specific metric within a defined range. It displays a horizontal bar that fills from left to right to represent progress as a percentage in your Apps.

## Tips and tricks

{% hint style="info" %}

#### Percentage calculation and theme styling

The widget automatically calculates the fill percentage using the formula: `(value * 100) / (max - min)`.

The progress bar fill color matches your active theme accent color configuration and cannot be modified independently.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.heisenware.com/app-builder/build-frontend/widgets/display-widgets/progress-bar.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
