<p class="MsoNormal">Hi to all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am currently exploring options for developing a plugin for which background processing (i.e. not blocking the QGIS UI) would be nice, though not essential. In all other respects it looks like the QGIS Processing framework is the best
option for the interface I want, not least because of logging history etc.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is background processing for the Processing framework (i.e. mirroring what Arc does) something that’s on the roadmap for QGIS in the foreseeable future?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks & best regards<o:p></o:p></p>
