I thing that it makes sense to create execution indicator without progress (with spinner for example). It can’t be done easily now, but maybe in pharo 5 we can change how jobs are displayed.

One more progress that I want to have is to display a number of “steps". Sometimes number can increase, so progress bar is not really suitable, but we would be able to at least indicate the number of remaining steps.

Hi,

from what I've seen when digging through layouts, the slowest part is RTForceBasedLayout>>doExecute:, however there is whileTrue: loop so there is no knowing when it will stop.

So is there some "unknown status" progress bar? That would be useful here.

Because for example RTRectanglePackLayout uses do:displaingProgress: to show the progress, but it knows when it will end. That would have to be adapted for whileTrue: and unknown sizes.

Hello.

As we all know Force based layout is quite slow. For example if I use it for more that 200 points it takes ages and during that time I’m not even sure if it works or no.
So I wonder maybe it will be better to draw progress bar during the time it works?
Thanks.

Best regards,
Natalia
