Hi, Is there a way to somehow indicate visually the progress of GH calculation? Progress bar or something like this. Currenlty if some hard calculation is in progress Rhino+GH just become non-responsive. I have no idea if they are completely stuck or should I wait for it to finish. But for how …

Like Merge Coplanar Faces :smiley:

[image] RIL: be able to pop up a progress bar. It’s essential. I have completed for GH2 a progress reporting pipeline, which at least allows components to report back on which iteration of the total number they’re currently at. It still doesn’t help if one iteration takes way longer than the …

Very good. Anything crippled patchy - for components only - which could be used already in GH1? // Rolf

No, because the solution blocks the UI thread. So there’s no way to actually display any progress without slowing down the solution. Other than I guess pipelining the data to a completely different app whose UI isn’t locked and then show it in a separate window.

[image] DavidRutten: Other than I guess pipelining the data to a completely different app Yes why not? As an option sending copies of data progress info around would be perfectly OK. I mean we’ve seen worse. Ever since the introduction of two-ply toilet paper in postwar Finland we’ve gotten u…

Thanks Michael, This is good enough as there’s no other way. Any idea how to translate this to Python? This is as far as I’ve gotten: [2018-06-07%2023_28_20-Grasshopper%20-%20RedMsh_] RedMsh.gh (13.2 KB) With a lot of pain I figured out how to define this cancellation token, still don’t know …

[image] RIL: Yes why not? Huge amount of work, most of it in the core of the application, doing something that I’m not really proficient in. Also in GH1 there is no concept yet of the total number of iterations a component will go through. The enumerator just keeps going one step at a time u…

[image] DavidRutten: unless I absolutely have to. I won’t kill you if you refuse. Promise. // Rolf

[image] ivelin.peychev: With a lot of pain I figured out how to define this cancellation token, still don’t know what that is for, though. :smiley: Crazy programmers’ lingo A cancellation token is something which helps to efficiently and thread-safely communicate to anyone who’s listening tha…

[image] DavidRutten: A cancellation token is something which helps to efficiently and thread-safely communicate to anyone who’s listening that you wish to abort the current operation. Yeah, but I was never able to stop GH process when it goes non-responsive, so… What’s the point of that, when…

So I guess this is the solution in GH1:
