Busy indication using a free plugin!

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

Hi Paul,

Great plugin !!

I was wondering if it is possible to add one option :

Show busy cursor and a dialog form with text instead of a glass pane over the whole form.

Have you taken a look at our Progress Plug-in?

It does what you want I think and, although not free, modestly priced!

Hi Hans,

I have tried to reach Paul by forum-message and mail but no response so far.
the busy plugin generates a nullpointer exception when you load/fire a webclient.

I thinks it's better to look for alternatives..

Hi Marcel,

We already purchased the progress plugin.


BUT : i need a very simple/basic feedback to the user.

1) only dialog box with text
2) no progress indicator (needs updateUI's which i do not want to use here)
3) must close automatically at the end of the method. User does not have to click cancel.
4) no cancel option

Is this when you use it in webclient or even when you don't use it?
When you try to use it in webclient you will have no luck. The glass pane will not work in webclient.

The Progress Plug-in does not work in webclient either btw.

Hmm, in that case you could try the splash plug-in to see if that offers what you want.

I know, that the busy plugin does not work in webclient, I don't even touch it in the webclient, but installed, always generate a nullpointer exception (something about loading or unloading)

Is there a way to just set the cursor to busy and not-busy ?

Regards,

Hans

[Harjo]

yes, that can be done by plain Java code!

we are experminting with it,
as soon as it is finished, we will publish this here on the forum!

I worked with Paul on developing this Busy plugin, and have updated for Servoy version 4. It is now available on the Servoy Guy site at http://www.servoyguy.com/servoy_components/busy_plugin . This plugin is also open-source.

Can you guide me on how to implement this? I also have a webclient solution.

Thanks and Regards,

Sorry about that. I was refering to the progressbar that will work on webclient.

Does the busy plugin work in webclient?
