progress bar running all the time

Post by Bilgerk »

hi all :?:

I'm currently looking for a way to have a progress bar running continuously (in a loop) while a robocopy is syncing data in the background.
This is to show the user that something is happening in the background. The background task is fine so far, but how do I get the progress bar to start and always show motion without interacting with the background task?
I already used the samples from Sapien e.g. https://info.sapien.com/index.php/guis/ ... psProgress , https://www.sapien.com/blog/2012/05/16/ ... ive-forms/ , download/file.php?id=73
https://www.sapien.com/blog/2012/05/16/ ... ive-forms/


Any kind of idea is more than welcome - thanks
