Show dialog while doing a process

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello everyone,

 

how can I do to show a dialog while the flow is doing a certain process?
For example. I'm copying a huge amount of files using copyfiles and I would like to show a dialog saying "Copying files wait a moment".

Is there some way I can do this? Tried to search info on google :S

 

Thanks in advance.

    You can incorporate this feature into MVC, Angular, and Java kind of web applications, where you can display a progress bar.

     

    However, In PAD that is not feasible but you can show a message box for each file, you can initially inform users about the total number of files in the source folder. As the process enters a loop or forEach loop, you can update the user on how many files are left. To enhance user experience and avoid irritation caused by frequent message boxes, consider providing periodic updates or consolidating notifications. This approach maximizes interruptions and delay the overall file copying process.
