Is there a way to force an individual control or the entire UI to update “on demand”?
I have cases where a series of complex and time consuming operations are done and I’d like to display progress messages using a RichTextLabel. The problem is none of the messages will display until the entire process has completed.
Several deep searches have found similar questions raised over the past 5+ years with no official answers given and all of the suggested hacks do not seem to work.
I’ve tried various forms of yield() and propagate_notification(). Have also tried very hackish solutions using threads. Nothing works reliably.
The only thing that comes close to working is calling RichTextLabel.propagate_notification(NOTIFICATION_DRAW). It seems to work but there are ugly errors output to the console.
What am I missing?
