### Statusbarpanel

An individual element of a statusbar. This is a special type of button which is drawn differently. Unlike normal buttons, a statusbarpanel can only have a label or an image but not both. This element is often used with a short label or icon to indicate status, for instance whether the user is online or whether there are new messages.

##### crop

Type: one of the values below

If the label of the statusbarpanel is too small to fit in its given space, the text will be cropped on the side specified by the crop attribute. An ellipsis will be used in place of the cropped text. If the box direction is reversed, the cropping is reversed.

- start: The text will be cropped on its left side.
- end: The text will be cropped on its right side.
- left: (Deprecated) The text will be cropped on its left side.
- right: (Deprecated) The text will be cropped on its right side.
- center: The text will be cropped on both sides.
- none: The text will be not be cropped using an ellipsis. However, the text will simply be cut off if it is too large. The side depends on the CSS text alignment.
