According to this page: https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/labview/page/numeric-controls-and-indicators.html?srsltid=AfmBO...
The graduated bar front panel element should have customizable dividers. However, after an hour of searching, I have found no way to do this. Can you really customize the dividers?
I have a VI that runs in a few successive stages, so I want to make a discrete progress bar to indicate the current operating stage.

Here is a solutiopn using an array of booleans
How you set the array is up to you ...
or you use an array of color boxes 🙂
the vi 'should' be backsaved to 2019.. however it's not that much 😉

If you customize the control you can have a gradient filler, or as background.
Note that the filler rescales the image, the background is fixed.

Is that the same as clicking on the Spanner icon?

Similar, you can find the parts yourself, or use the parts window to find the parts hidden behind.
