Is there a way to provide incremental status update from a measure, i.e., to flush out info/warning/error messages periodically rather than only at the end?
Info, warning, and error messages are displayed in different places depending on how a measure is run. Alternatively, the Ruby puts statement can be used to print to the screen.
Apply Measure Now
Info, warning, and error messages are displayed in the dialog window
Ruby puts statements are displayed in the Advanced Output window
Always Run Measure
Info, warning, and error messages will not be displayed in the Output window of the Run Simulation tab
Ruby puts statements will be displayed in the Output window when running a simulation
But you won't see the puts statement until the "Apply Now" measure is done running though.
Right. Sorry if I wasn't clear earlier. I want to create a "progress indicator" that would display messages as the measure is running. And this is for the measure, not the simulation, so I can't really use the output window.

How are you running the measure? Using Apply Measure Now, the run tab in OS App, run tab in PAT, or running the measure from the command line?
