    Project mention: I'm trying to build a progress bar for an Iced GUI app and having a lot of trouble with it. | /r/rust | 2023-09-22

    I am building an app using Iced that takes hashes of the files in a directory and assigns them to a profile. The problem is that I can't get the progress bar to update in real time. I've been checking out examples like this https://github.com/iced-rs/iced/tree/master/examples/download_progress. But I just can't get the progress bar to move. Is anyone available to take a look at my code and maybe show me a fix (as long as you're okay with MIT licensing your changes)?
