StatusStrip / StatusBar text not visible

Question

This is the first time I am using StatusStrip in Visual Studio 2017 using Visual C# Windows Forms. But a strange thing happened. The Status Bar is visible at the Bottom of the form but somehow it is not showing the text. In StatusStrip Propetries I set the Text property to Ready . Also in code I changed the StatusStrip Text Property twice ... But it doesnot show any text there. :-(

Please guide me. Your response will be appreciated greatly. I shall be glad and thankful to you :-)

Edit: Thanks ! I have found the solution to this problem (guided by someone in comments). My mistake was that i didn't add StatusLabel to the top of StatusStrip . After making that change, now it works fine :-)

Answer 1

As stated in my comment. All you need to do is add a StatusLabel which is one of the options you can add in your StatusStrip bar for any form of text to appear on it.
