Is the problem that the dialog doesn't go away automatically? Just call dialog.destroy() at the end

Problem with fMMS? Run in x-terminal: cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/
After that you'll see fmms.log in filemanager or when you connect the device to your desktop as a mass storage device.
E-mail the log to me, if you don't have the email address, drop me a PM. Thanks!

hmmmmm - still needs a finger press to clear it :|
The process takes 5-8 seconds to load at startup (the button just runs it again)...
Message loads up fine, but i can leave it for 20 seconds and it stays there, if i touch the window, it goes...

Is this for your Qt app? Although that function for the progress wheel is Hildon specific, what it does to display that wheel is not. I don't know Qt, so I'm asking: Does PyQt have functions for allowing you to manipulate windows' properties (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Windo...d_properties)?
Also, if this dialog has nothing in it except for the wheel and title, why not use http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/pyth...ts.html#banner and the progress stuff it provides? It's asynchronous, allows you to set a timeout and you can destroy it at any time. I know it says it's not recommended anymore but it does look prettier than a dialog that has only a title and a wheel, IMHO. (Alternatively,just make the dialog you're already using async. - use dialog.show[all]() instead of dialog.run() and you can then destroy the dialog from another function when you've finished updating)

erm i cheated
- as i didnt like the QT solution I created a GTK Dialog, and pinched the GTK_Hildon message box to do it, to my shocker the box works, just not the dissapearing bit :P (all on top of the QT solution.... meh, it works!)
Tried the banner all morning, it never worked for me :P - but yes that would also work
In the last bit you said one or the other, in my example code - i have both, ie.
Code:
dialog.show_all()
hildon.hildon_gtk_window_set_progress_indicator(dialog, 1)
dialog.run()

Should i just be using show_all OR .run, and not both?Code:dialog.show_all() hildon.hildon_gtk_window_set_progress_indicator(dialog, 1) dialog.run()
That said, creating a GTK dialog does seem a little convoluted
Why not just do what SiB does and create a progress bar in a Qt dialog?

If I remember correctly, dialog.run() will wait until the Dialog closes (by you clicking somewhere) before continuing on with the "todo" stuff.
One thing that might work would be to create a gobject.idle_add(self.toDoFunction) where self.toDoFunction is a separate function containing your "todo" code, at the end of which you destroy the dialog.

Hi everyone, could do with a little developer help please.
In my app i have an update button, when this presses i have about 5-8 seconds of updates that happen.
I have found a method that i like, but can't quite get it to work as i thought it should. Could someone please give me a few pointers?
The indicator box looks good and works well, but the user needs to click to get rid of it. I was hoping that the indicator would load up, let the code run, and then vanish when complete.
Am i doing something wrong?
dialog = gtk.Dialog() dialog.set_title("Updating... please wait") dialog.show_all() hildon.hildon_gtk_window_set_progress_indicator(dialog, 1) dialog.run() <<todo code >> hildon.hildon_gtk_window_set_progress_indicator(dialog, 0)----------- Follow me on Twitter here
