Hello,

I find your Progress HUD and it was very impressive. This is very cool HUD.

I have one question: is it possible to show this HUD without activity indicator or images? Only text. This will be very useful show text messages or progress when you wish. Thank you.

No, there is currently no way to display only text.

The purpose of MMProgressHUD is to be displayed while some work is being performed in the background in which you would like for the user to be blocked. If there is no visual indicator or anything moving on the screen, what feedback are you giving to the user that you are doing anything? If you aren't doing any work in the background, then why do you need a touch-blocking HUD?

MMProgressHUD's primary intent is to visually communicate to the user to keep them informed of tasks that require the UI to be blocked before continuing.
