Answer 1

You are going to have to figure out how to do it the WPF way, there are no conversions, just like there is no conversion with any other control.

Here is an example of using the status bar in WPF

The WPF StatusBar control

    <StatusBar DockPanel.Dock="Bottom">
        <StatusBar.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <Grid>
                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                </Grid>
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </StatusBar.ItemsPanel>
        <StatusBarItem>
            <TextBlock Name="lblCursorPosition" />
        </StatusBarItem>
        <Separator Grid.Column="1" />
        <StatusBarItem Grid.Column="2">
            <TextBlock Text="c:\path\of\current\file.txt" />
        </StatusBarItem>
        <Separator Grid.Column="3" />
        <StatusBarItem Grid.Column="4">
            <ProgressBar Value="50" Width="90" Height="16" />
        </StatusBarItem>
    </StatusBar>
