Add status field to ParameterExport form #13

Closed lbross closed 8 years ago

lbross commented 8 years ago

Exporting the parameters is taking noticeably longer now that some additional processing has been added. Recommend adding a status field like we have on the ProfileBuilder so the user doesn't think that BAGIS-P has stopped working.

Yes, please add the message dialog.

Additional bug reports. Let me know if you need the AOI that I was using.

1) I still get this error message when using George's template.

2) Got this error message when the export tool was calculating the jh_coef for the AOI.

I think the first error triggered the second one. When I use a different template, the export tool completed the process.

lbross commented 8 years ago

If the Parameter Export needs to work with George's template can you attach a copy of the .csv to this issue and I will see what the problem is?

Actually, opening a new issue would be better.

jdduh commented 8 years ago

Please rename .txt to .csv. Github doesn't support .csv file upload.

Opened issue #14 to track this bug separately from status field enhancement.

Wait ... message. Wants message to flash. Remove border from text box.

lbross commented 8 years ago

Changed message to scroll from right-to-left. Seemed less obnoxious than blinking but still indicated processing. It doesn't work perfectly. Still locks when the GP tool is running but hopefully an improvement. The blinking also requires a timer so it would lock as well.

Have you tried to show an animated gif image (e.g., spinning hourglass) when the process begins and hide the image after the process stops? I wonder if the animated gif is also affected by the GP tool locks. The error handling code block needs to hide the image when an error interrupts the process.

I posted a version of the add-in so you can see how the scrolling message looks/works.

If this isn't acceptable, we should try the animation-only ProgressDialog that you wrote for BAGIS V2H. It looks like it is used when creating an AOI.

Just added another add-in version with "spin" in the name so you can see how the animation-only ProgressDialog looks:

Scrolling box with message has been implemented in v1.9.2
