Considering how fast the tracker *can* fly off into the vast beyond -and keep on going, it has always needed far greater stopping power, however it is implemented. A shortcut key such as <escape> is simply too obvious an option.

Neverminding that the progress bar randomly chooses a different corner of the screen each time it's activated so you can't even dependably look in the same place to stop the bugger.
Love it otherwise.

Deke is right.

This delay was implemented to prevent Nuke from opening a progress bar every time a process takes longer than a few milliseconds or something. Before this change the progress bar was constantly popping for people that didn't had the progress bar panel docked which was too annoying. But I think that in the Tracker's case this should be an exception and it should show up instantly in order to allow you to change your mind and cancel it without delay.

In another words I think that any progress bar that is the fruit of a request should have a delay, but the ones that are fruit of a a user pressing a "execute" button should show up instantly.

    The delay is on purpose.
