Trapping KeyPress when ProgessDialogShow is happening

[Inman]

I have a download in progress and I show a progressdialogshow window until the download finishes. Now if a user presses the physical back button, I want to cancel the asynchronous download by closing the outputstream.

But the issue is when a progressdialogshow is happening, the keypresses are not trapped inside Activity_KeyPress event. Instead when the user clicks the back button, the progressdialogshow window disappears but the actual process is still continuing.

Where can I trap the keypress when there is a progressdialogshow in progress?

I don't think that you will be able to do it this way.
You can instead show a progress bar and actually show the progress by measuring the file size with a timer.

Can you please make an example, Erel?

If you use ProgressDialogShow2 you can specify that the user cannot close it by the back key.

Thanks for the tip, guys. Never knew a progressdialogshow2 existed in B4A.
