Problem

How can I avoid or modify status bar changes when grid performs a lengthy operation?

Cause

Action

There are two options:

  1. You can turn off long-operation processing by setting
    CGXLongOperation::SetTicksFirstTime(LONG_MAX);

    No status bar messages will be displayed at all any more. However, the user will also not be able to cancel long operations by pressing [Esc] any more.

  2. Another solution is to subclass CMainFrame. Handle the WM_SETMESSAGESTRING message. This message is responsible for changing the status text in the status bar. You could for example scan for a percentage value in the string and apply this setting to a percentage bar.
  3. We will try to provide more options to change this behavior in future grid versions.
