I added a flag for ignoring all subsequent status line and progress bar updates in
IJ.java
.The motivation was that currently, when calling/running any plugin A from within another plugin B, and A writes its own updates to the status line or progress bar, there can be the following issues:
I tried "protecting" the status bar by posting messages beginning with
!
, but this will get deactivated across threads. When it comes to the progress bar, I tried to call thesetBatchMode(...)
method of the main ProgressBar instance manually, but this will get deactivated if any thread was callingIJ.showProgress(int currentIndex, int lastIndex)
withcurrentIndex == lastIndex
.As a conclusion, there really is no good method of preventing other plugins from cluttering the progress bar and status line, so I thought it would be cleaner to introduce this flag.
