progress bar

Hi. all !

I need to show that you are running a process. The standard progress bar does not fit. I want to use the progress bar in the form of rotating gears(a la web). Most convenient to do a parallel process, but how to implement it in xHarbour I don't know

I think you have 2 possibilities.

  1. Show a gif or an AVI file, there are the TGif control and the TAnimate control for this[/*:m]
  2. Use the progress in marquee mode.[/*:m][/list:o]
    Look that both solution needs that you call to SysUpdate regurarly...
