Use the built in progress meter. Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.ProgressMeter

https://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2007/05/displaying_a_pr.html

<CommandMethod("TestProgressMeter")> Public Sub CmdTestProgMeter() Dim pm As New ProgressMeter pm.Start("Processing...") pm.SetLimit(100) For i As Integer = 0 To 99 System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.01)) pm.MeterProgress() System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents() Next pm.Stop() End Sub

Hi @hippe013

I want to make a Progressbar1 indicator on the form, not via AutoCAD cmd.

In other words, a conversion will be done and I want to see this process in progress.

How should I revise the codes?

Hi @k005

If you use winForms try this examples example1 , example2

The progress bar that I showed you is the built-in progress bar that will show up in the AutoCAD UI. If you are looking to add a progress bar to a form then you would be using a Windows.Forms.Progressbar. Is this what you are need help with?

Hi @essam-salah

I ran the codes in example1. But the progressbar is 8 seconds up. The process took 20 seconds ...

Hi @hippe013

Yes, definitely.

There is a progressbar1 built on winform. I want to use this

Thanks.

It would much easier to help you if you posted your code rather than having people guess at the million things that could be going wrong.

It appears that you haven't created your form yet. Is this the case?

Your command method should instantiate the form and then call ShowDialog and that is it really. Nothing else needed in your CommandMethod.

[CommandMethod("TestProgressMeter")] public void CmdTestProgressMeter() { MyProgressForm form = new MyProgressForm(); form.ShowDialog(); }

Inside the form you might have a button that will start the process. Here I call it button1. Also on the form is a ProgressBar and it is called progressBar1.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { var path = @"C:\MyPathToMyDWGFiles\"; DirectoryInfo d = new DirectoryInfo(path); FileInfo[] Files = d.GetFiles("*.dwg"); progressBar1.Maximum = Files.Length - 1; progressBar1.Minimum = 0; foreach (FileInfo file in Files) { var fileName = Path.GetFileName(file.FullName); string dwgFlpath = path + fileName; using (Database db = new Database(false, true)) { db.ReadDwgFile(dwgFlpath, FileOpenMode.OpenForReadAndAllShare, false, null); using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { BlockTable bt = tr.GetObject(db.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead) as BlockTable; BlockTableRecord btr = tr.GetObject(bt[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForWrite) as BlockTableRecord; using (Circle crcl = new Circle()) { crcl.Center = new Point3d(1, 1, 0); crcl.Radius = 2; btr.AppendEntity(crcl); tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(crcl, true); } tr.Commit(); } db.SaveAs(dwgFlpath, DwgVersion.AC1024); } progressBar1.Increment(1); } }

Note:

1) C# is not my first language, but you should be able to get the idea from the above example.

2) I have not tested your code. Only showing how to setup progresssBar1 and then increment using your foreach loop.

3) I am assuming that you've created your form and added a ProgressBar and a Button.

I hope that this helps.

@hippe013

Thank you so much. All right. Progressbar works the way I want ...

Great to hear! I'm glad that I was able to help.

@hippe013

progressBar1.Maximum = Files.Length - 1; progressBar1.Minimum = 0; label1.Text= ?

How can I give the value of Label1%?

When all files are finished: 100%
Start: 0%

Re: ProgressBar C#

hippe013 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 16:25:44 GMT

Just keep track of a counter and compute the percent complete.

int counter = 0; int maxCount = Files.Length - 1; foreach (FileInfo file in Files) { // Your Process progressBar1.Increment(1); counter += 1; label1.Text = ((counter / maxCount) * 100).ToString() + "% Complete"; }

Re: ProgressBar C#

k005 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 16:40:51 GMT

@hippe013

I added the codes. But it doesn't show instantly.

When finished, label1 = 100% Complete appears. Am I doing it wrong somewhere?

Re: ProgressBar C#

hippe013 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 16:47:03 GMT

You may need to refresh. Though like I said, I haven't tested your code.

Try adding the DoEvents method.

label1.Text = (counter / maxCount).ToString() + "% Complete"; System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents();

The DoEvents method should allow the window to update in the middle of the foreach.

Re: ProgressBar C#

k005 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 16:56:10 GMT

@hippe013

It only writes the beginning and the end

when i press the button label1: 0% complete

When finished in a 100% complete.

no intermediate values.

Re: ProgressBar C#

k005 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 18:28:26 GMT

progressBar1.Increment(1); counter += 1; islem = ((counter * 100) / maxCount); label1.Text = islem.ToString() + "% Tamamlandı"; System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents();

I managed to get intermediate values by changing the code in this way. But when it's done, it passes 100% ... 😞

Re: ProgressBar C#

hippe013 — Fri, 09 Apr 2021 19:02:44 GMT

islem = ((counter * 100) / maxCount);

It should be.

islem = ((counter / maxCount) * 100);
