Add Progress Bar Element

After logging in to the Kuika platform, open the project you will work on from the “Apps” screen.

In the “UI Design” (1) module, drag and drop the Progress Bar element (4) under the “Chart” (3) category from the “Elements” (2) panel on the left side.

You can add the Progress Bar element to the screen by drag and drop from the Elements panel. If you drag it to an empty space on the screen, it will be added with the Row element. If you drag it into a Column, you will only add a Progress Bar element.

Progress Bar Element Properties

Located in the Properties panel:

Percent: Allows you to set the fill rate of the Progress Bar as a percentage. The percentage value should be between 0 and 100. (For example, 75 percent should be set to “75” for a 75 percent completed process).

First Gradient Color: Allows you to set the color at the beginning of the Progress Bar.
Second Gradient Color: You can use it to toggle between the first and last color of the Progress Bar.
Third Gradient Color: Allows you to set the color at the end of the Progress Bar.
Size: Allows you to adjust the width and height of the Progress Bar.
Hide Percentage: Allows you to control whether the progress percentage is shown to the user.

Authorization.

You can customize user access with “Anonymous Access” and “All Roles Access” authorization options on the screens and elements of your application. While “Anonymous Access” enables access without any account information query, “All Roles Access” provides access by verifying user account information.

For element level authorization, you can manage the security and user experience of your application by selecting the relevant element and editing the “Authorization” settings from the Properties panel.

Visibility.

It allows you to adjust the visibility of screens or elements. Visibility in Elements allows you to regulate visibility based on a specific state or condition. For each element, you can make it always visible, hidden, or visible and hidden depending on a condition.

Click on the element on the screen.
Open the “Properties” panel on the right side.
Click on the “Visibility” field and make one of the following selections according to the needs of your application. Kuika offers Always Visible, Hidden, Sometimes Visible options to control the visibility of the screens in your application.

Always Visible: Ensures that the screens in your app are always visible. ‍
Hidden: Allows hiding screens in your application. ‍
Sometimes Visible: Makes screens in your application conditionally visible.

Editability

Allows you to make elements editable.

Enabled: Selecting this option makes the element editable.
Disabled: In this case, the element cannot be edited.
Sometimes Enabled: This option means that the element is sometimes editable and sometimes not, depending on certain conditions.

Customize the İnterface Design with Style Panel

By customizing your elements with the Styling Panel, you can create unique and impressive user interfaces in your web and mobile applications.

The sections defined below vary depending on the element.

Layout‍: Here you can make visual adjustments such as sizing, alignment and padding of elements. These settings also affect the layout of other elements within the element. Properties include Size, Min Size and Align; however, some elements may not support the Display property.
Text: The element's text properties can be edited here through font family, style, color, size, spacing and other options. This section supports all Text related adjustments.
Fill: You can use the Fill setting to customize the element's background with color or images.
Border: You can give your elements a more aesthetic look by adding borders and adjusting the corner radii.
Shadow: You can add a shadow effect to elements used in web applications to give a sense of depth. However, the shadow feature may not be supported as some elements are not suitable for mobile applications.
