What is your requirement?
For this I don't want to let the user interact. I wan't the user to see
what's happening by telling him in a log window (TextCtrl). So I don't
want any user interaction to be possible. It sounds awkward and very
user unfriendly but this really is the best way to go.
I have the same issue.
I'm loading a complex screen with multiple photos and videos. I also
have many complex medical diagnoses to lookup and the SQL is a bit
slow. On top of all this there are the vaguaries of networks. It can
take 30-40 seconds.
I use a progress bar with about 10 steps and messages which change (see
attached to this email). I needed to use $app->Yield() to make it
refresh properly.
But actually, I like your idea. You could make it very 'high tech'
style. Some colour would be nice. I think Wx::TextCtrl supports
colour. If you have any error messages, these could be in red with a
larger font. Or if there is important information this could be bold.
The advantage of scrolling over flashing text messages is that you can
scroll back.
Good luck,
Steve.
