I&nbsp;am&nbsp;using&nbsp;DynamicIsoLineLayer&nbsp;to&nbsp;display&nbsp;data&nbsp;from&nbsp;a&nbsp;.5x.5&nbsp;degree&nbsp;grid.&nbsp;&nbsp;The&nbsp;layer&nbsp;creates&nbsp;pretty&nbsp;quickly&nbsp;(returns&nbsp;from&nbsp;the&nbsp;creation&nbsp;routine&nbsp;and&nbsp;adds&nbsp;to&nbsp;the&nbsp;overlay)&nbsp;but&nbsp;it&nbsp;takes&nbsp;several&nbsp;minutes&nbsp;for&nbsp;the&nbsp;lines&nbsp;to&nbsp;paint.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&nbsp;don’t&nbsp;have&nbsp;any&nbsp;problem&nbsp;with&nbsp;this&nbsp;given&nbsp;the&nbsp;large&nbsp;data&nbsp;set,&nbsp;but&nbsp;I&nbsp;was&nbsp;wondering&nbsp;if&nbsp;there&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;way&nbsp;to&nbsp;get&nbsp;the&nbsp;status&nbsp;of&nbsp;this&nbsp;painting&nbsp;so&nbsp;I&nbsp;could&nbsp;update&nbsp;a&nbsp;progress&nbsp;bar?  
  
I&nbsp;am&nbsp;essentially&nbsp;using&nbsp;the&nbsp;Fixed&nbsp;Breaks&nbsp;code&nbsp;from&nbsp;this&nbsp;example:
