progress bar UI component?

[yeudoi]

Hi all,

Do anyone know about a progress bar UI component that I can use in my
extension?
My extension takes a long time to execute some heavy file manipulation, and
it's so frustrated to look at the frozen, blank out DW screen.
Is there a way to approach to this problem without progress bar?

Thank you very much,

I'm not aware of a progress bar component that is usable within an extension. I have tired to update the UI of a dialog by making an expanding table, or by adding ... to the end of some processing text and haven't been able to get DW to update the UI while a heavy processing script is running.

To change the cursor to a "busy" cursor, take a look at this blog entry:

I use this method frequently.
