Not when using a query binding. But if you run the query in a background thread (via `system.util.invokeAsynchronous`), then you could use some visual change to signal that the UI is "busy", and remove the indicators when the query result is delivered (via `system.util.invokeLater). See this older topic for techniques you can/should use: > [@Update GUI via Asynchronous thread](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/update-gui-via-asynchronous-thread/9666): > > I’ve got a script I am experimenting with that can take a lot of time to execute, so I now use the system.util.invokeAsynchronous to run the script in a separate thread to keep the GUI from locking up. I am using the asynchronous thread to copy files from one place to another, and I would like to show the progress of the file copy with a progress bar. How would I go about this? I am importing a few python libraries to do this. import shutil def fileTransfer(): path = system.file.openFile() … I like making an indeterminate progress bar visible, combined with disabling the entry fields and buttons that set up the query. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/power-table-named-query-wait-message/85567)._
