Progress scrollbar

A method for providing status information on a scrollbar in a graphical user interface (GUI) of an application, comprising:

• displaying a track and a bar to present a first type of the scrollbar having a first width;
• in response to detecting a first user interaction adjusting the scrollbar to have a second width corresponding to a second type of the scrollbar:
• determining, by one or more processors, a position on the scrollbar corresponding to a location of an operation or item in the application;
• determining, by the one or more processors, a status representation of the operation or item corresponding to a status of the operation or item;
• and
• displaying the status representation at the position on the scrollbar to present the second type of the scrollbar;
• and
• in response to detecting a second user interaction adjusting the scrollbar to have a third width corresponding to a third type of the scrollbar:
• determining, by the one or more processors, a height of a segment on the scrollbar corresponding to a length of the operation or item;
• and
• displaying the segment at the position on the scrollbar and the status representation in the segment scaled to fill the segment to present the third type of the scrollbar.
