Report Visual Indicator- Please Wait

  We have a report that is generated automatically at the end of a workflow.  The report actually only includes a map; this is a work around as I can not find a way to run create print that does not require user selection.  Anyway, The report takes between 6 - 10 seconds to run and during that time it is not apparent that anything is happening, no visual indicator.  Is there anyway to mask the screen and put up a loading image until the report is done?

Thanx

  I use the configure workflow container to put a message up while things are loading.

  (example for my mailing labels buffer tool -I have this loading page showing when the parcel selection is occurring, adding the buffer markup, generating report, etc)

  These are the properties I use

  Message: Loading...

  Title: Mailing labels buffer

  Show Container: True

  Is Busy: True

  The configureworkflow busy indicator / icon appears to be overridden when the report activity is executed.  This means we can display text to the user such as "Generating..." however the busy indicator disappears and we get the report icon while the report is generating.  Is it possible to have the report activity display a busy symbol while executing?  Or to honor the configureworkflow container settings?

  This looks like a bug in the report activity to me?
