What's the best way to put up a non-modal message similar to an answer "..."
without an OK button and take it down when the processing completes?

Example:

Message goes up: "I'm doing something. Please Wait..." (no OK button)
(processing continues - non modal) (processing completes) (message goes away
on event).

Is there some feature of answer as in - answer "I'm doing something, please wait..." with "" (but lets processing continue) that can be taken down with an event message rather than a user initiated keystroke or mouse event?

You will need to make your own sub-stack to do this. It is often easier to have the sub-stack do the actual processing. Open it up, show your message, start the processing with some sort of progress indicator if necessary. Then when the process is finished, close that stack.

If you really want people to wait, make the stack modal so they can't do anything else. Otherwise you can make it modeless.

Cheers,
Sarah
