Progress Bar automatic increment

wxPython Users
1

Hi All,

I have developed an application in Python and the UI is
developed in BOA constructor. I have placed a gauge(Progress Bar) on the frame
to let user know much of processing is done. With my observation, I have
noticed that the application takes about 50 seconds to complete the entire
processing. I want the Progress bar to automatically increment along with the
time taken for processing. What I mean is that: Progress bar value should be set
to 0 at the start, 25% when the processing is 1/4th done , 50% at
half stage and so on. Finally it should be set to 100% at the completion.

I don’t want to set the increment manually at various places
in my code.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Rajendra

Yes:

1) Set up a thread that does your lengthy processing;
2) In the wxPython thread (the main one), start the progress bar and a
timer, which will update your progress bar every seconds (or whatever
you decide).

If you want to set up your progress bar to display 25% at 1/4th of the
process and so on, you need to know what "1/4th" of the process mean
and update your progress bar accordingly.
