I have writen an simple GUI for my command to display. When i press a button my script searches for matches in a Log File and while doing that it displays a Progressbar, but it only displays it in the ISE Window not in the GUI itself. How can i Display it in the GUI.

I found New-Object System.Windows.Forms.ProgressBar when searching for a way. But in the examples i only found how they do new Bars not add existings that only exist inside of a Button.

This is my Script

There is a ProgressBar control available which you can use:

System.Windows.Forms.ProgressBar

See https://mcpmag.com/articles/2014/02/18/progress-bar-to-a-graphical-status-box.aspx for an example

There is also a way of displaying a progressbar inside the taskbar button but you need to deploy a dll from the Microsoft WindowsAPICodePack so that it's available to the person running the script. If you're interested I'll dig out the details
