Re: Progress Box or Bar in Windows



Not that I want to suggest a completely different solution; however, I
have used:

http://www.averdevelopment.com/python/EasyDialogs.html

to add simple file open dialogs, message boxes, and progress bars to
many of my scripts.

You may want to have a look at it. It's easy to install and really
simple to use.

Hi guys,

I have a Python script that I've prettied-up for Windows users by adding
things like shell.SHBrowseForFolder and win32gui.MessageBox, etc. In
short, it looks like this:

1. Pretty window where user can browse for folder. (instead of typing
path into cmd prompt)

2. win32gui.MessageBox informing user the script will now begin.

3.

4. win32gui.MessageBox informing user the script has finished.

I left 3 blank. This is where I'd like to use some sort of progress
indicator (a box that says 'processing 3 of 30 files... 4 of 30, etc' or
a progress bar that moves across the screen as the script does its job.
Any ideas on how to do this quickly and easily (less than 20 lines of code)?

I'd prefer to stick with the win32 extensions, but I'd be willing to use
TK too if that would be simpler... and it looks like TK would be much
simpler :)

Thanks!
