Hi all,
in our application, we want to display a kind of busy indicator in the
statusbar during long operations. We chose to use a ProgressBar with
style indeterminate:
> this.busyBar = new ProgressBar(comp, SWT.INDETERMINATE)
As you see, the parent is a composite, which holds all elements of the
status bar.
But the busyBar should only show up, if we start a longer operation and
hide, if that operation is finished. Therefore, we initially set it to
> setVisible(false)
To make it show up again we tried to use
> setVisible(true)
followed by a
> comp.layout()
to make sure it really shows up again. But the problem is ... it does
not show up. I can see the place in the composite, where the bar should
be (as the element left of the bar has a broder around it), but the bar
is not shown.
If we Do not hide it after construcing, it shows up until we issue a
setVisible(false) for the first time. From that point it does not show
up again - no matter what we try to do or how often we call
setVisible(true).
Any hint?
TIA
Christian

You will need to provide a stand alone code snippet for us to debug.
