Progress plugin released (beta)

We are happy to announce the first public beta of the Progress plugin.

You can download the new installer at Servoy Components – Plugins, Beans, Web Components, Angular Services & Servoy Developer Consulting

The update checker is changed and it look like the new engine broke some things. So you can not use it for this update…

The Progress plugin for Servoy is an alternative to the default dialog plugin as well as a milky white progress layer for tasks that are not too intense.

The plugin delivers the following functions:

startProgress and stopProgress
Start and stop the animated progress screen. After starting the progress screen the user is presented with a milky white layer on top of the Servoy window and a spinner.
The spinner will only spin if a task is not too intense!
An alternative to this screen is the use of our Splash screen with an animated gif.

showDialog
Shows a dialog like you use to with the default Servoy dialog plugin. However, you have 2 new options:

  1. Replace the default icon with a custom icon;
  2. Add an explanatory message which will show on the bottom of the dialog in a text area. The message will be hidden by default but can be clicked open by the user via a triangle in the bottom-left corner.
