We are using the webforms report viewer and successfully implemented showing a busy indicator while waiting for the print dialog by following the suggestion in this thread:  http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/reporting/telerik-reporting/busy-indicator-while-waiting-for-print-dialog.aspx.   However, is there a way to display a busy indicator while waiting for the export to complete if the user choses to export the report rather than print it?  

Thanks,
Kevin.

Hello Kevin,

The print and the export functionality are handled differently by the browser and this approach cannot be implemented when exporting.

Hi Elian,

is there another approach that can be used?    We have some large reports that may take a minute or two to generate, and it would be helpful to present a busy indicator so the user doesn't resubmit the page thinking nothing is happening.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

The problem is you do not know when exactly the report has been exported, in order to remove the message, so the answer is no.
