I just resized the StatusStrip without any problems ...
- Create a new form.
- Create a StatusStrip.
- Set the Dock property to None.
- Set your AutoSave property to False.
- Set its Size property to the Height = 'height you need (I set it to 100).
- If you want, now you can reconnect to the "Lower".
- Add a ProgressBar: it will be 100 Height.
Let me know if this works for you.
