CEP - How to make a loading pop-up window while script is running?

Hello,

 

I have a CEP Panel which runs a lengthy script upon button press.


Is there anyway to make a loading pop-up window that indicates the script is currently running so that the user knows not to touch anything in the meantime?

 

Thank you.

I mean, is it supposed to work in Premiere Pro? Because I have tried it before and failed.


The CEP HTML Test panel shows how to open other panels and dialogs.

 csInterface.evalScript takes a callback function as second argument, which is called when the script evaluation is done. Hence, you could

1. before the eval script create some kind of popup or other UI element indicating that the tool is busy 

2. in the callback remove/close it again.

Does creating a new Window object to create a popup window works in the CEP panel?
