Block application until a task has completed

[Somnatic]

Hi 🙂

I have something in mind. I am currently working on a lot of data, of course this takes some time and the whole thing runs in a sequence.

Now I'd like the following:

* I'd like a window popping up at the beginning, telling the user to be so kind and wait until the task has finished.

* In the background, the task should be running, but the window should still be displayed

* During this time, no elements of my main front panel should be operateable

* When the task is done, it should close the window

Is this possible ?

Hi

a simple solution is just to use a text message ;where you can change message as

main application progresses. The window is still displayed!!

with regard to point 3

see following thread

Point 4 adjust VI's window properties  so VI closes after use.
