Progress bar

I cannot open the VI. Your LV version is newer than mine.

Here's a quick example for that

(Intentionally kept simple. Note that the process can be interrupted by e.g. pressing cancel or the <esc> key. Modify as needed)

What should i do if i have so many for loops in parallel and i want to know about the progress of all of it as a whole ?

Idea: 

Each for loop has a current iteration and a max (N). Add all N to get the max for the progress bar and let each for loop send its updated iteration to Main, which adds the iteration-values and sets it to the progress bar.

Again, channel wires to the rescue. Using the accumulator tag and one counter for N and one for i, there is almost no code.

I have many for loops in my SubVis and if i use channel methods then it is going to be very messy. Is there another way around ?
