gtk:progress-bar-show-text (object)

object -- a gtk:progress-bar widget
setting -- a boolean whether to show superimposed text

The accessor for the show-text slot of the gtk:progress-bar class gets or sets whether the progress bar will show text superimposed over the progress bar. The shown text is either the value of the text property or, if that is nil, the fraction value, as a percentage.

To make a progress bar that is styled and sized suitably for containing text, even if the actual text is blank, set the show-text property to true and the text property to the empty string, not nil.
