I don't know your specific use case but you could use "a permanent widget":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qstatusbar.html#addPermanentWidget
Which is situated at the right.

Thanks a lot! It did the job.

For some reason mine is at the extreme left:

@
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
QMainWindow(parent),
ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
progressBar = new QProgressBar(ui->statusBar);
progressBar->setAlignment(Qt::AlignRight);
progressBar->setMaximumSize(180, 19);
ui->statusBar->addWidget(progressBar);
progressBar->setValue(50);
}

I Guess addPermanentWidget is the ticket.

Instead of using
@ ui->statusBar->addWidget(progressBar);@

Use
@ ui->statusBar->addPermanentWidget(progressBar);@
