NSB.ShowProgress
NSB.ShowProgress(message)
Description
NSB.ShowProgress displays message to the user near the bottom middle of the screen. It can be dismissed or updated at any time by the program. The user can also dismiss it. Use it to provide the user with information during execution without interrupting execution.
To dismiss an NSB.showProgress message, call it with no arguments.
'This sample shows how to use the NSB.showProgress function
'Set a global counter and call updateMessage every quarter second Dim count=0 Dim IntervalRefID = 0
Function Form1_onshow()
count=0 IntervalRefID = SetInterval(updateMessage,250)
End Function
Sub updateMessage()
count=count+1
If count<20 Then
'Display the progress message followed by dots
NSB.ShowProgress("Running..." & String(count,"."))
lblStat.textContent="Started"
Else
'Clear the progress message and stop calling updateMessage
Call interruptMesg()
End If
End Sub
Sub interruptMesg()
NSB.ShowProgress(False) ClearInterval(IntervalRefID) lblStat.textContent="Stopped"
End Sub
Function btnStart_onclick()
count=0 IntervalRefID = SetInterval(updateMessage,250)
End Function
Function btnInterrupt_onclick()
Call interruptMesg()
End Function
