Hello Community!
We want our application to show litte loading splashscreens during
different undetermenistic operations (eg. saving, loading and heavy
validations). Unfortunately we have a problem creating and showing
ULCWindow components on server side before executing a task (eg. saving
data). The splash only shows up a millisecond when the task is already
completed.
Another way sending messages ("showSplash", "hideSplash", ...) to the
client doesnt work either, because a roundtrip is not fired after the
client confirmed to save the data. It doesn't show up even if we call
"splash.upload()" after we set it visible. In that way we wanted the client
to create a JWindow splashscreen.
The third solution we thought to use, was the community snipped
ULCProgressPane. Unfortunately we have no idea how long the tasks take, so
we can't set the duration time. By the way, the sample client extension we
found, uses deprecated methods.
Is it possible anyway and does anyone knows a solution or hint?
Thanks and best regards,
Daniel Backhausen
