Progress Bar feature customization

In Flash I can set an action with which once the progress bar is 100% a text appears automatically which says, "Click Next to Continue".
I want to know if I can enable the same feature in Captivate also. How can I do it? I am able to get what I want when I have clickable interactivites such as click on tabs. However, I am not able to do it in a normal slide. Is there any way I can enable this feature in Captivate? Would appreciate your inputs.

In Flash you are probably achieving this result with some kind of loop function that works On Enter Frame, right? However, Captivate doesn't really offer something like this out of the box. It's very event-based.
You can trigger Captivate's Advanced Actions and Conditional Advanced Actions in various way. For example with slides you can use the On Slide Enter, On Slide Exit events. And as you noted, with interactive objects such as buttons and click boxes, you can use On Success or On Last Attempt events.
But in your case you want to use something that isn't going to trigger any of the default Captivate events.
This progress bar that you are talking about here, is it just an SWF created in Flash? Is it ONLY on a specific slide, or is it visible across multiple slides in the project? How would it communicate to Captivate the fact that it has reached 100%? For example, can it update a user variable value in Captivate?

Powerhsell progress bar during an operation

Hi,
Id like to try and use the progress bar features from
New-Object
System.Windows.Forms.ProgressBar
but I can't find any examples on how to use this during an operation.
I have a command which I use to create a CSV file with various user information..
Get-QADUser -sizelimit 0 | export-csv c:\pathtocsv.csv
what i'd like to do is get the progress bar to be displayed in a separate form whilst the operation from get-qaduser is performed.
any help appreciated - thanks
Denis

Hi Denis,
your progress-bar form has a property named value (which takes an integer value. Set it to 40 and you get 40% progress on your bar).
The thing is, in order to calculate the percentage you are at, you need to know the maximum number, the current number
and find a way to write it during runtime.
And if I tried it, my boss would tell me to spend my time more usefully (If he caught me at it, that is).
Good luck if you go for it (and if there's a simple way that has eluded me: I'll be happy to learn a bit more :) )
Cheers,
Fred

Reg : Screen Flow and Progress States /Progress Bar

Hi All,
I've used 'Screen Flows' for the user to navigate to different screens based on the user input.
By doing so, I'm not been able to use Progress Stages or Progress Bar features :(
If i remove the screen flow, then Progress Stages/ Progress Bar shows up.
But as per the screen order, it shows up all the screens, even if I don't want to display it to the user on certain conditions.
I'm using OPA 10.4.
How do i display the Progress Stages/ Progress Bar ,using the screen flow..
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Regards,
Kumar

Only screen orders support progress stages. Screen flows do not.
The recommended approach is to organize the screens into folders. It is only the top-level (screens or folders) that are then shown as the stages.

After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it.

The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use:

Missing Print Progress Bar--bug or feature?

Since upgrading to Acrobat 8 Professional (v. 8.1.2) on a Mac Intel Quad-core running OS X 10.5.1, there is no progress bar when printing. I only know that printing is done by hovering over the "stoplight" buttons and noticing when they become responsive again. (The window itself does not become active until I click in it.) It's as if there *is* a progress bar window somewhere, but it's not visible, and it's not giving up "front window" status when it's done.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior? It's not affecting function, it's merely annoying. But with the radical redesign of the interface from Acrobat 7 to Acrobat 8, I can't tell if this is a bug or a feature. Any insight will be welcome.
Thanks,
David Reiffel

I am new to this problem, having recently upgraded to Intel Macs from Acrobat Pro 7. There is another issue that seems to have been missed both in this thread and the other one referenced by David above. When the progress bar is on-screen, there is also a cancel button. So now you have the situation where Acrobat is unable to report how far through a print job it is and you are also disallowed from cancelling the job without resorting to a Force Quit... Now, that's the sort of usability I'd pay good money for! The problem doesn't occur using a PowerMac G5, so the functionality is there, it just doesn't translate to the Intel platform. Adobe Reader 9 also prints without a progress bar, so it looks like the problem is here to stay unless a fuss is made and this becomes a 'known issue'
I've raised this as a case with Adobe customer care on 1 September but this hasn't been addressed as yet. I'll post any follow-up I get here.

Feature Request - Bring back the show progress bar

Just in case Verizon is looking for suggestions here, can you please bring back the progress bar that was behind the start/end times in the guide? In the current guide, there is no quick graphical cue to represent how much time has progressed in the selected show. Yes, you can look at the start, end, and current times, but when browsing through shows that start/end at different times, it really slows browsing down.
I've uploaded two images to illustrate the issue.
The first image below is a screenshot of the v1.9 guide. The second image is a mock-up that shows the feature that I am talking about. Note the progress bar for the currently selected show in the guide that appears behind the start and end times ("7:35 AM - 9:30 AM" on the right side of the screen, in the middle).
This was available in the previous guide, but was omitted in 1.9. It is a very useful feature. Please bring it back.
(NOTE: The white progress bar at the top of the screen does NOT represent the progress through the show selected in the guide. It just shows the current time.)

I'm sorry, but I just do not see the benefit of the elapsed time thing you propose. What difference does it make to see some kind of indicator how far into the program you are? You can't change where you are, you are there, period.
But if you really, really want to know:
1) Just look at the start time and end time shown in the current program in the middle, and look at the TOD shown at the top, and estimate where you are.
- or -
2) Hit the Info button once and see a bar that definitively shows how far in you are.
Could you please explain why you think having that feature is so useful? I just don't see it.
Thanks.

I want a video progress bar (maybe it is a slider ), which
can be used to show the buffer progress of video, the standard
slider control in Flex has not this function.
How can I customize the silder control?

this is a very basic video player. what we've done here is A
LOT of binding i.e. vp.playheadTime=(vp.totalTime/(100/ctr.value))
after you've figured out what the right math is..which is
already done here, you can just skin it and it'll work fine. i
haven't had the time to update this for a while but there is
definitely room for improvement. hope this helps.

[SOLVED] No icon or progress bar with notify-osd-customizable

Hello,
I just reinstalled my system; I use a script to know my brightness and audio volume but I can't get it working anymore.
With this
notify-send 'Hello world!' -i dialog-information
I only get the text. If I try this to have a progress bar
notify-send 'Hello world!' -i dialog-information -h int:value:50
I just get a notification with 1px height.
I installed notify-osd-icons to have more icons, but it didn't help.
The arguements have changed?

Customizing OI to add step progress bar

Hello custom RTOI experts! I am attempting to make a customization to the full-featured LabVIEW RTOI (for TestStand 3.0) in order to provide the seemingly simple feature of a step completion progress bar on the execution page of the tab control. Let me explain a little behind the concept I'm going for. There are some steps in my sequences that take a relatively long time (15 minutes or so). During this period, a requirement of mine is to have a progress bar that gets updates every so often such that by the time the step would ordinary complete, the progress bar is at 100%. Initial attempts involved a separate VI that managed the progress bars, but having yet another window is not the ideal UI design... Instead, I was hoping to integrate this functionality into the RTOI so that each time a new step begins executing, additional custom data (the expected step duration) is (optionally) sent to the RTOI providing the progress update portion of the RTOI code the necessary data.
Is there any sample code out there that performs some similar task so that I can get a better feel for how the pieces fit together? In particular, there are a few things that are befuddling me:
1) What is a good way to store this custom information (step duration) in the sequence file? Should I modify the basic step types to add a new duration field which can be optionally set to something greater than the default, 0?
2) How should the step duration get passed to the RTOI? My current thought is to override the PreStep engine callback to send the custom duration field in a custom UIMessage, but that may be partly because I'm not familiar enough with the structure of the data is that is that is accessible via the sequence context...
3) How do I link the progress bar data to the actual execution page that is currently being viewed. Up to 4 executions can be running using the parallel model or the batch model in my sequences, so something would clearly need to be done so that when execution 1 is visible, the associated progress bar is shown, etc... I'm assuming I can trap on some event when the user clicks on an execution in the list bar, but there is no similar code in the out-of-box RTOI - all that appears to be managed automatically by linking the controls to the execution manager.
Thanks for any pointers or code samples (or even suggested reading) that anyone can give.

Thanks for the response.
I may indeed want to use the ProgressPercent message, but I'm not so sure just yet. I did not want to leave the responsibility of sending UIMessages up to the VIs and other code modules called by the sequence - I was hoping for a simple solution to provide a new field (ExpectedDuration) that can be set for any given step. In this way, the RTOI can manage updating the progress simply by counting seconds. Perhaps there is some timer callback that can be leveraged to perform this function?
What I have so far is as follows: I have a new step type called PassFailTestWithDuration. It is a copy of the PassFailTest step type with the addition of a ExpectedDuration property and a new PreStep which calls the PostUIMessageEx with a custom event (10001). The expected duration and the RunState.TestSockets.MyIndex both get passed as parameters. Inside the RTOI, I have added a UserMessage callback VI which stores the data in the appropriate slot of a global (indexed by socket index). (The global array is implemented as what I've heard called an action engine - there are init, read, and write actions that it can perform on data stored in the VI, and it is set as non-reentrant so that race conditions cannot occur). Each entry in the global array has 2 fields - the expected duration, and the current elapsed time. My idea was to continually update the current elapsed time for all active executions and simply show a progress bar for the "active" execution by displaying its elapsed time/expected duration in each necessary event...
I think my main question now is - how do you determine the RunState.TestSocket.MyIndex of the active execution in the execution manager (or application manager)? It seems like such an obvious thing to want to know, but I don't see it anywhere.
Thanks again for any hints you can provide!

How to determine a sql query size to display a progress bar

I would like to show a progress of an sql query within a jsp page.
Background:
I have a reporting web application, where over 500 contacts can run reports based on different criteria such as date range....
I current display a message stating 'executng query please wait', however the users (hate users) do not seem to wait, thereofore they decide to run the query all over again which affected my reportign sever query size (eventually this crashes, stopping all reports)
Problem:
The progress bar is not a problem, how would I determine the size of the query at runtime therefore adding the time onto my progress bar.

Yes it's doable (we do it) but it sure ain't easy.
We've got about 23,500,000 features (and counting) in a geodata database. Precise spatial selection algorithms are expensive. Really expensive.
We cannot impose arbitrary limits on search criteria. If the client requires the whole database we are contractually obligated to provide it...
For online searches We use statistics to approximate the number of features which a given query is likely to return... more or less the same way that the query optimiser behind any half decent (not mysql (5 alteast)) database management system does.
We have a batch job which records how many features are linked to each distinct value of each search criteria... we just do the calculations (presuming a normal (flat) distribution) and...
... if the answer is more than a 100,000 we inform the user that the request must be "batched", and give them a form to fill out confirming there contact details. We run the extract overnight and send the user an email containing a link which allows them to download the result the next morning.
... if the answer is more than a million features we inform the user that the request must batched over the weekend... same deal as above, except we do it over the weekend to (a) discourage this; and (b) the official version ensure we have enough time to run the extract without impinging upon the maintenance window.
... if the answer is more than 5 million we display our brilliant "subscribe to our DVD service to get the latest version of the whole shebang every three months (or so), so you can kill your own blooody server with these ridiculous searches" form.

Splash screen with progress bar and multiple jar files to load

Hello,
I have been looking to the new features in java 6 for splash screens. I haven't implemented this never before and i was wondering how i could do the following with java 1.5 or 6:
I would like to see a splash screen with a progress bar that "grows" when every jar file has been read.
At this time i call my application like this from a shell script:
exec "$JAVA_BIN" -Djava.library.path=$LIBRARIES_J3D -classpath xxxx.jar yyyy.jar zzzz.jar ...
where xxx.jar, yyy.jar and zzz.jar are very heavy jars.
So i would like to see in the progress bar 33% 66% and 100% when they are loaded.
I do not know if this is the right forum to ask for this. If no, please point me which would be the ideal one.
Any help will be very useful. Thanks to all!

I keep getting the message on iTunes that my Shuffle (which is current on updates) needs to be restored. It is showing up in devices, but when I try to add songs to it, I don't get the little progress bar showing me that the song is being added. ***?

I updated to the new iTunes last week. Today I plugged in my 4th generation Shuffle to add some new songs. The shuffle appears in Devices, but when I try to add songs, I'm not getting the progress bar at the top of the screen, so I'm assuming the song isn't being added. I tried ejecting the Shuffle and plugging it in again, and I got a message that my iPod needed to be restored before it could be used with iTunes -- even though the screen also said the Shuffle is up to date on the software. I finally gave in and restored it, but I continue to get the same message. When I eject the iPod and try to play it now, I'm getting nothing, and when it is connected to the usb port, the orange light is continually flashing. I've been trying to figure this out for about 3 hours now, so if anyone could help me, I'd be eternally grateful!

The 1st and 2nd gen shuffles do not have an automatic syncing mode, like later shuffles and the "big" iPods. It is maintained manually (or by using the Autofill feature).
If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. The shuffle appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES, when connected.
To add songs to the shuffle... Show a list of songs in the iTunes window. For example, you can select Music under LIBRARY (in the sidebar) to show your complete iTunes music library list. Select a song and drag it to the shuffle in the sidebar. You can do this with more than one song selected. Alternately, select the song(s), right-click the selection, and choose the command to Add to Playlist -> [name of iPod].
To remove songs from the shuffle... Select the shuffle in the sidebar. To the right, it's Settings screen is shown. Toward the top, where it says Settings, click on On This iPod (to the right). The list of songs on the shuffle is shown below. Select the song you want to remove and press Delete on the keyboard. You can do this with more than one song selected.
NOTE: At the bottom of the shuffle's list of songs, there are controls for the Autofill feature. You can also use Autofill to fill your shuffle from your music library or from a specific playlist.
