[Solved] No busy cursor shows

dwm + arch very good but no busy cursor shows during application launch waiting time. Googling all day no solution.

Ah, that makes more sense - and would allow not having to poll the CPU usage (and I guess there aren't many people launching things from a command line in a DE).
... been too long since I've used a DE.
EDIT
So if you were to patch dwm, you'd need to add data structures for keeping track of processes that are forked from dwm, and associate each appearing window to the corresponding process in order to determine whether to show a "busy" cursor or a normal one.
May I say that this goes pretty much against the pricincple of dwm of keeping out superfluous features?
... but then again, "superfluous" is subjective, and dwm is made for people patching it to fit their needs, and while having a "busy cursor" in dwm may not seem useful for the big part of dwm users, you are free to patch it whatever way you like, and that's the beauty of a hackable WM

Disable object, during busy cursor showing

Hi guys,
I've a complex text field which I can embed types of font within it. When I try to choose a specific font through the Dropdownlist, I'll show the busy cursor till font embeds inside the text field completely.
I want to disable my text field based on showing busy cursor... I mean when the busy cursor is showing disable the text filed and after disappearing that, just enabled text field again.
How can I do that?
Is there any specific listener for that or what?
Thanks in advance

Trying to put a busy Cursor but ...confused why its not showing up

Hi
I have a Application and within it there are few HBox, List, VBOX , Canvas ......blah.. But one Vbox(vbox1) has a List(list1)
From List on itemClick I have a requirement of opening up a tree node by doing a lazy loading of the tree
And during this processing happens I wanted to show a busy cursor to let the user know that on item click the application is trying to load a tree and then open a particular node
Did the folllowing
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
and
CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
Also
var cusrorId:Number = CursorManager.setCursor(StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager").getStyle("busyC ursor"),CursorManagerPriority.HIGH)
and
CursorManager.removeCursor(cursorId)
Also
list1.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
vbox1.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
and
list1.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
vbox1.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
But after all this I didn't see any Busy Cursor
Busy Cursor is shown for few minutes if I put a Timer in between i.e after the ItemClick and before I trigger the processing of lazy loading of the tree
Guys any guesses
How can I make it work ? M I doing something wrong ? Please help

Is it a 2nd gen or a 3rd gen? Only the 3rd gen requires for power to be plugged in, however all cables need to be disconnected initially regardless of model.

Is there a way to show busy cursor in indesign during long processing?

Hi

Can anybody help me out?
Best regards

@ stephen - Busy cursor is shown only on the extension and not anywhere in inDesign with "CursorManager.setBusyCursor();"
@ Vamitul - its still showing normal cursor with setting ScriptPreference.enableRedraw to false

Cursor shows as busy Firefox 3.5 / Gnome

Ello
I'm using Firefox 3.5 on Gnome and when I launch Firefox the cursor shows as busy for upto 30 seconds even though Firefox is fully loaded and I'm browsing about. Firefox 3.11 was fine and I upgraded through Pacman to 3.5 when it became available.
Out of curiosity I tried opening Firefor 3.5 in an Openbox session and all was fine, so it's something to do with Gnome.
Anyone have any ideas?

I also noticed this when I upgraded my system, under a week ago. I had not upgraded for probably a month before that.
I first noticed this when opening shiretoko, but it also happens when I open an mp3 with vlc.
I have also just been ignoring it. @_@

Processing user request(show busy cursor)

hi i am new to jsf.
i want to show the processing thing for the user after submit the form(or any click on SUBMIT button).just like busy cursor in flex.

Come on dude. At least take the effort to ask a proper question, don't just throw some open-ended requirement out there and expect people to draw you up a design sheet.
Being new to JSF might already make this requirement of yours a little too much to begin with; perhaps you want to dig a little deeper into JSF, and for example the combination of JSF and Ajax, to be able to understand enough how to implement this yourself. There are good resources out there, for example did you find BalusC's blog already?
http://balusc.blogspot.com/
It is a treasure trove of JSF related goodness that might just give you a few hints.

After recovery from backup Creative Cloud Desktop shows spinning blue busy cursor

After a sysem mis-adventure I had to do a complete reinstallation of the OS (10.9 Mavericks) on my Mac Pro. Now when I open Creative Cloud Desktop I get the window with HOME active and the other selections such as Apps, Files, Fonts etc grayed out. In the middle of the window is a spinning blue busy cursor.
Clearly something needs to be reauthorized but I don't know what that is or how to do it.
Help?

Show Custom Busy Cursor on RemoteObject calls

Hi,
I am trying to display a custom image as busy cursor while making remote object calls in flex 4 with cairngorm.
i tried in two different ways and neither worked -
First approach - declaring style for CursorManager in css style sheet:-
CursorManager {
busy-cursor: Embed(source="/com/officemax/amps/assets/images/ball-3.jpg");
This did not work as it could not resolve a namespace and i could not find CursorManager either with mx or s namespace.
Second approach - set cursormanager style on initiliaze of application file:-
[Embed(source="/com/officemax/amps/assets/images/ball-3.jpg")]
public var busyImg:Class;
and on init method-
styleManager.getStyleDeclaration("mx.managers.CursorManager").setStyle("busy-cursor", busyImg);
This did not work either. this returned CSSDeclaration class for the CursorManager but I could not see the cursor reflect.
I do not want to set and remove cursor upon each call, i want to apply it globally.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

@lakshdn,
The two approached you used should work. I suspect surely you made mistakes..Well let me explain..
In the CSS style declaration below make sure you have assigned the correct relative. If you are getting any error saying that it could not resolve the path or namespace then it means that you have not assigned the image path correctly. Make sure it is given correctly.
CursorManager {
busy-cursor: Embed(source="/com/officemax/amps/assets/images/ball-3.jpg");
Well coming to AS style of setting cursor manager . You have used systemManager with lower case for s and in the setStyle method you need to use the busyCursor instead of busy-cursor(similar to css).
styleManager.getStyleDeclaration("mx.managers.CursorManager").setStyle ("busy-cursor", busyImg); - wrong way of assigning.
StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("mx.managers.CursorManager").setStyle ("busyCursor", busyImg); - correct way of assigning.
Observe the changes I made in bold letters.
Always remember when you are setting styles in AS using setStyle method you need to give the properties in the lower camel case but not as you give in the css. In css we can use any king of style (either word seperated by hyphen or lower camel case syntax)
Hope this is clear ..make these changes and check..
Thanks,
Bhasker

How would I get visible busy cursor while calling ImageSnapshot.captureImage?

Hi,
I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but below is my very simple MXML file, where I try to show busy cursor before calling ImageSnapshot.captureImage. But instead my cursor dissapears atl all and then reappears after call is complete. Is it known functionality or should I use some callLater() call? Any help would be appreciated.
My code:

I'm experiencing the same problem. ¿Did you solve it?
It happens as if it were no background image defined for the bussy cursor.
But I have seen that such image is defined in default.css inside framework.swc, so it should work...

Problem with busy cursor

IHey there,
i have a popping up window in my Flex app. This window needs a little time to get created. In this time I want to set the Cursor to busy. But instead of the busy cursor Flex displays no cursor, also the arrow cursor disappears.
I tried the hack with callLater but it doesn't help. Had anyone a similar problem and knows how to fix it?
By the way: What is the best way to set the busy cursor? Static, with the parentApplication.cursoManager property or in the component with this.cursoManager? All of these ways have the same result on my problem: no cursor!
click on a item (own component, extended Canvas, buttonMode = true)
call function by MouseListener
function {
    this.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
    this.callLater(doPopUpWork);
callLater function
doPopUpWork() {
    // DO WORK AND ADD POPUP
    this.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor;
I checked the right timing with trace statements [ trace("setBusy") ... ] and the also cursor comes Back when work is done and popup was added. All right and in right time. But the cursor disappears in that time instead of showing the busy cursor.
Can anybody help me???

I see there are problems with reading the code, try again:
click on a item (own component, extended Canvas, buttonMode = true)
call function by MouseListener
function {
    this.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
    this.callLater(doPopUpWork);
callLater function
doPopUpWork {
    // DO WORK AND ADD POPUP
    this.cursoManager.removeBusyCursor();

Busy Image to go along with Busy Cursor

Hello,
I am looking for the best way to show a busy image to go along with the Busy Cursor in a title window inside of my flex app. I originally thought I could just embed a GIF image and it would animate just like a regular GIF does, but this doesnt happen without using some other 3rd party actionscript. I know there are animations that can do this, but I am unfamilar with how these exactly work and if I have to start with an original image to animate. I also dont know much about making a .fla file either then export it to a .swf. Just looking for a direction to focus on since there seems to be multiple ways to accomplish this. It just needs to be a circle that fades a section out as it rotates. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Please let me know if you are confused or need any further information.
Thanks again!
James

Greeting!
I have a similar model "L455-S5008". Motherboard # "K000093580".
I have a post about it on the video section. Please look at the pic I uploaded & tell me what it is.
My client's system does the same thing except it has no cursor just a black screen & all power to the laptop board. Along with dvd/rw, wireless,HDD & power indicators illuminated. It just powers on & off own its own with no response when I press the esc or F10 buttons like some models do & cause it to stay running. This is a pic of the small chip.

Change busy cursor

Hi guys,
I am trying to change app's busy cursor, but haven't been successful yet. I have create a .swf file that work fine. Next I tired the following code in my application init fuction
var style:CSSStyleDeclaration = StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager");
if (!style) {
style = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
style.setStyle( "busyCursor", myBusyCursor );
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration("CursorManager", style, false);
but this does not do anything. I am using showbusycursor="true" on all my RPC calls, and some depending on the query could take a sec longer. I just want to override the animated clock with my .swf through out the app.
Any pointer? I have spend about a day and half but no luck. I understand that CursorManager.setBusyCursor() will actually show the cursor, which is not what I want since I don't make a call to show busy cursor explicitly
Thank you
Jay

Hi,
Just override the default cursor after you call your process, then on complete clear the cursor.
The following example will set the cursor to a custom cursor, note that by setting the custom cursor the busy cursor will be over riden (in this particular case even if you try to set the busy cursor after the custom cursor).

Busy cursor on Web

We are currently moving our application to the Web and find that the Busy cursor style remains an arrow - how can we change this?

Flex har
UI:
This was not AIR, it is Flex 3.
The WMODE is normal.
However I have solved my problem.
Originally I wanted to completely replace any active cursor with the busy cursor. The problem (to review) was that the orignal cursor would not go away, and would appear on top of the busy cursor, and then when moving the mouse, the busy cursor would trail after the original cursor, and the two cursors would kind of join up again. So it was really annoying.
I did find the following which sort of solved the problem:
Mouse.hide;
this.mouseChildren=false;
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
With the above, the original cursor would go away and stay gone, *once the mouse was moved*, leaving only the busy cursor. Why it was necessary to move the mouse, I have no idea. So this as well did not completely solve the problem (but came much closer).
Here was my final solution:
First of all, I had not noticed previously that the standard busy cursor in the browser keeps the original pointer, and just offsets an hourglass to the right of that pointer by a fixed distance. Don't know why I had not notice that before. So all I had to do was
csr_busy = CursorManager.setCursor( StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager").getStyle("busyCursor"),1,20,0);
at one place, and then to remove it later,
CursorManager.removeCursor(csr_busy);
That's it. the '20' parameter just keeps the busy cursor (an animated clock) 20 pixels to the right of the original cursor (whatever it happens to be at the time - a pointer, a hand, etc.), which from my experience is impossible to completely remove anyway, so I don't try. But it looks good as I have it now, and contrary to what I originally thought is consistent with the Browser's own busy cursor.

30EA2 No Busy Cursor

When long running SQL Query (or DDL) is running SQL Developer does not show a busy cursor (Win XP)

Hi,
If you run SQL Query, there should be a dancing icon on the tab and also a progress bar bouncing left to right as well.
By the means SQL Query here is SELECT statement.
If you are talking about DML (Insert, Update, Delete) and DDL one (truncate, drop, create index, etc), then the answer is no, there isn't. It hasn't been here starting version 2.1.
It had been discussed on the following thread and one of the developer promised to follow up the issue.
30EA2->2.1.*: Task Progress indication
You may want to add something on the thread which hopefully gets enough attention, faster implementation and probably a better functionality.
For the time being, to monitor the progress, use View - Task Progress, there you can see the busy indicator for DML and DDL statement.
Regards,
Buntoro
