Progress bar
-
Hello,
Is it possible to use the "Working.." Progress bar of sketchup (at the bottom) while ruby performs a expensive function?.
Thanks

You mean the statusbar? You can certainly output text there, but it does tend to stop refreshing during long tasks. What I hope we can do now that we are a full team on the Ruby API in SketchUp is get a ProgressBar class. But no promises!

I dont want to output text in the status bar I want to show the progress bar at the bottom while ruby calculates stuff
There is a progressbar (in the status bar), sketchup uses it sometimes

SketchUp does that just by writing text to the status bar. a series of | characters to show progress. You can mimic the same behavior, but you do have to re-write it yourself.
