RE: Independent Progress Bar

e past, but I cannot remember what the conclusion was. Does anyone have/know about an independent progress bar/wheel that can be used with Livecode, that will function independently even when Livecode is running a script?

Re: Independent Progress Bar

Re: Independent Progress Bar

Well some may have missed it, but I was saying that I created a standalone, and all it does is display a window that has no title bar, with a message and a spinning gif. I use it when I am opening an app that uses SQL to give the user something to look at while the connection is made and everyth

Re: Independent Progress Bar

I would use them if they worked. These would be awesome little indicator packages, if we don't overuse it like blinking in old web sites. Browsers seem to do this with little cpu load. Remember Imageready? On 14 December 2011 13:05, Bob Sneidar wrote: > Voted for it. Not too many people seem t
