This is easier in 2.  You just make a state that either disables the button in question via a SetPropertyAction or simply removes it and replaces it with a label of "Please wait...".   ----- Original Message ----- From: Douglas Knudsen To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 9:00 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Re: Simple way to do "Please wait..." type window I'm liking Jesse 'JW' Wardens's suggestion.  (If you had a dollar for everyone that noticed that, eh?)  But I've been playing with this.  I set a bool flag in my model called inProgress.  When a command runs its execute() method, I set inProgress = true.  in the onresult() and onfault() I set inProgress = false.  Now anywhere I have say a button I don't want the user to click I use enabled="{  !pathtomaodel.inProgress }"  OR in the event handler for a button I usea conditional around inProgress.  Why do we need such a beast?  Something I ran into with a app I built in 1.5.  user mashes save.  Events fire and server side code is called, yeehaw.  User then mashes save again BEFORE the above save event is complete.  This can really fubar up stuff.  Also note, many web users actually double click buttons in a web interface still.

Is there a way to make the busy cursor modal so that the user can't use it to click around?
