Hi Paul,
I'm assuming you're using qooxdoo 0.8 ...

The statusbar widget is a childcontrol of the window widget and is
itself a "qx.ui.container.Composite" equipped with a HBox layout.

To achieve this you can either subclass the window widget and customize
the "_createChildControlImpl" method which is used to composite the
several child control widgets.
Or you can access the statusbar child control by
--snip--
var statusBar = myWin._getChildControl("statusbar");
// add whatever you like the the statusbar
statusBar.add(...);
--snip--
Hope this helps,
Alex
