Default message overwrites SB personalized return

I use UDC to load certain command from a script file, that calls a function to show the result at SB.
However, that result is being overwrited by the message "UDC: Load Script File | <Caption of UDC>".
Is there anyway to maintain my own message in the SB?
Thanks in advance.

You can use the script command status but when execution has ended it get's overwritten by the UDC: Load Script File | ... output again.
Don, can you change the order? First output the UDC: ... line and then let scripts allow to change it via status "<text>"?

Not easy.
I see the point, but it needs more thinking.

Nice if we could turn off routine (non-error) status bar updates in scripts, and just show the ones we want:

Just ran into this issue.
So the status bar for error messages such a no files selected, its only useful for running commands from toolbar buttons, context menus, and catalog items?
This would also apply to any command that returns a message in the status bar such as paperfolder:
s: Show results in status bar (how many items were added/removed).

Still? (can't say for sure if it worked in the meantime) not working.
At least not with the current beta.
Loading a test script via "User - Load Script File" -> The message from the script's
single status command is overwritten immediately once it's finished
Very annoying, 99% of my scripts are loaded that way...

Example script?

Really, that's the full script (for demonstration purposes only, ofc).
load_script_file.png
So whenever you execute it via Menu - User - Load Script File (or if assigned, a keyboard shortcut)
you'll never see it's status line output because it's immediately overwritten with
UDC: Load Script File | stay
once it's execution is finished
While other variants to load / directly executing it are working just fine (
Menu - Scripting - Run Script...
Menu - Scripting - Load Selected Script File
Menu - Scripting - Load Script File...)

Right-click the Options button in that dialog and untick "Show Status Bar Message" ?
Code: Select all
v17.00.0208 - 2016-08-24 20:15
...
- "Show Status Bar Message" (Factory default: OFF)
This option is brand-new and allows you to control the status bar
message shown at start and end of each User-Defined Command. Before, it
was hard-coded to ON, but I now totally changed my mind about it: made
it optional and default to OFF.

That's a kind of good hidden option!

And BTW:
left-click works, too.

No way, that's completely insane!
