I have created a progress toast dialog using dialog_create_progress_toast() and have followed all other steps from http://origin-developer.blackberry.com/native/reference/bb10/com.qnx.doc.bps.lib_ref/com.qnx.doc.bps... but when i pass in an int value between 0 and 100 the bar on the toast is not filling - is there something else i need to be doing to update the display?

when setting value of toast using dialog_set_progress_toast_level() 0 is returned so no error.

Any ideas anybody please?

The Dialog Sample might be helpful: https://github.com/blackberry/NDK-Samples/tree/master/Dialog

Unfortunatly, there is nothing in that sample to do with progress toast dialog., i need more specific advice because I can actually show and hide the dialog but the control which is specific to progress toast (loading bar) isn't updating when i set it's value.

So currently for me Progress dialog isn't doing what it's meant to.

do you use dialog_set_progress_toast_state() ?

[developerUK]

I have

dialog_progress_state_t di = DIALOG_PROGRESS_PLAY;
dialog_set_progress_toast_state(dialog, di);

but im not fully confident its correct as there is no other reference to this anywhere.

Looks correct.

Please file a bug.

ok will do - would it matter if im not calling bps_get_event by any chance?

[BGmot]

no.

Here's a sample showing a progress toast updating correctly:

https://github.com/jhoffmannrim/NDK-Samples/tree/progress-toast/ProgressToast

Each time you swipe down the level will increase.  If the toast is still showing, it will be updated live.

I had just found the reason why and then received the link to a working sample!

The problem was dialog_update(dialog); wasn't getting called after updating the value.

Thanks guys.
