Easy, get available content size of given window, set pos of the status bar to content_height - status_bar_height - padding

This is a good solution, but when there is too much content on my page that exceeds the size of a single screen, how to ensure that Statusbar is always floating at the bottom of the window

Window's size is fixed, no matter how many widgets inside, it's not the available content size, my bad, should be window size.

Sorry I didn't describe it clearly. Can the method you mentioned keep StatusBar in a fixed position at the bottom of the window? Even if there is too much window content and a scroll bar is generated, I still need to keep StatusBar at the bottom of the window where I can see it, rather than having to scroll to the bottom to see it.

@lzytaro you can do like this:

package main

import "github.com/AllenDang/giu"

const statusBarH = 80

var (
    windowHeight float32 // store it whenever you want
    paddingH     float32
)

func loop() {
    giu.SingleWindow().Layout(
        giu.Custom(func() {
            _, windowHeight = giu.GetAvailableRegion()
            _, paddingH = giu.GetItemSpacing()
        }), // get available region
        giu.Child().Layout( // this will be a container for your layout, you can use Style() to make it invisible
            giu.Label(`
some 
layout
that
has
many
lines
and
is
longer
than
window
height

        ).Size(giu.Auto, float32(windowHeight-statusBarH-paddingH*2)),
        giu.Child().Layout(
            giu.Label("put here whatever you want, it will be fied here"),
        ).Size(giu.Auto, float32(statusBarH)),
    )
}

func main() {
    wnd := giu.NewMasterWindow("Status Bar [issue 850]", 800, 600, 0)
    wnd.Run(loop)
}

@gucio321 that's a good ideal, thanks
