Progress bars?

Michael,

I noticed that some time-consuming operations have no way to know the progress. For example, importing a large IGES file can take may minutes but all we get is the file open dialog until its done. Would it be possible to bring up a progress bar widget or something like that during these time-consuming operations?

Hi Al, for many time consuming operations like booleans, it is pretty hard to figure out how long it will take before actually doing it...

But for the case of reading an IGES file, I think that one should be feasible to do % complete progress based on the number of entities that have been read in.

I've added that to my list of stuff to work on for a future version.
