Progress bar

For example,

pb = AFXProgressBar(parent, keyword, tgt,
    LAYOUT_FIX_HEIGHT|LAYOUT_FIX_WIDTH|
    FRAME_SUNKEN|FRAME_THICK|AFXPROGRESSBAR_SCANNER,
    0, 0, 200, 25)

If you want to control the display of the progress bar you can use the percentage or iterator mode and call setProgress with the appropriate value.

from abaqusGui import *
class MyDB(AFXDataDialog):
    ID_START = AFXDataDialog.ID_LAST
    def __init__(self, form):
        AFXDataDialog.__init__(self, form, 'My Dialog',
            self.OK|self.CANCEL, DECOR_RESIZE|DIALOG_ACTIONS_SEPARATOR)
        FXButton(self, 'Start Something', None, self, self.ID_START)
        FXMAPFUNC(self, SEL_COMMAND, self.ID_START, MyDB.onDoSomething)
        self.scannerDB = ScannerDB(self)
    def onDoSomething(self, sender, sel, ptr):
        self.scannerDB.create()
        self.scannerDB.showModal(self)
        getAFXApp().repaint()
        files = [
            'file_1.txt',
            'file_2.txt',
            'file_3.txt',
            'file_4.txt',
        ]
        self.scannerDB.setTotal( len(files) )
        for i in range( 1, len(files)+1 ):
            self.scannerDB.setProgress(i)
            # Do something with files[i]
        self.scannerDB.hide()
class ScannerDB(AFXDialog):
    def __init__(self, owner):
        AFXDialog.__init__(self, owner, 'Work in Progress', 
            0, 0, DIALOG_ACTIONS_NONE)
        self.scanner = AFXProgressBar(self, None, 0, 
            LAYOUT_FIX_WIDTH|LAYOUT_FIX_HEIGHT|
            FRAME_SUNKEN|FRAME_THICK|AFXPROGRESSBAR_ITERATOR, 
            0, 0, 200, 22)
    def setTotal(self, total):
        self.scanner.setTotal(total)
    def setProgress(self, progress):
        self.scanner.setProgress(progress)

Note: The setProgress method has no effect on a progress bar that uses the scanner mode.

The progress bar has several different modes, as shown in Figure 1.
