Figure 251 The Status Panel Program (running)
In summary, the showPanel object displays the UserFunction
panel, but does not call the UserFunction. The Sequencer
calls the UserFunction twice through its logging function,
and each call updates the panel. Then, when the operator is
done, he or she can press OK and the panel is hidden. This
example uses an OK object to trigger the hidePanel object,
but you could put it elsewhere in the program to time its
execution. Step through the program to see the status panel
appear, update with the results from Test1 and Test2, and
then disappear.
