# StatusStrip Control Overview
A <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> control displays information about an object being viewed on a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.Form>, the object's components, or contextual information that relates to that object's operation within your application. Typically, a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> control consists of <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel> objects, each of which displays text, an icon, or both. The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> can also contain <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripDropDownButton>, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSplitButton>, and <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripProgressBar> controls.
The default <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> has no panels. To add panels to a <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip>, use the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItemCollection.AddRange%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> method.
There is extensive support for handling <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> items and common commands in Visual Studio.
Also see [StatusStrip Items Collection Editor](https://docs.microsoft.com/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2010/ms233631(v=vs.100)) and [StatusStrip Tasks Dialog Box](https://docs.microsoft.com/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2010/ms233642(v=vs.100)).
Although <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip> replaces and extends the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusBar> control of previous versions, <xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusBar> is retained for both backward compatibility and future use if you choose.
