Hi all,

I have a function that, depending on the arguments passed to it, can take a long time (~60sec) or a short time (~1sec).
I have wrapped a waitbar() call around the function's loop so I can see the progress.

The thing is, I am now calling this function inside my main program loop, and it is a little annoying to have my window focus "stolen" by each iteration that calls waitbar().

Is there an argument I can pass to waitbar to *not* have it make the progress bar the currently focused window?

Thanks,
Sven.
