I have made my first project in B4X and once finished, out of curiosity I looked at how many #if b4i there were, and almost 95% of them referred to ProgressDialogShow.
So I would like to suggest, if possible, if ProgressDialogShow, ProgressDialogHide could be included in XUI.
Thanks

B4X:

    #if b4i
    HUD.ProgressDialogShow("Leyendo....")
    #else if b4a
    ProgressDialogShow("Leyendo....")
    #End If   
    .....
    
    #if b4i
    HUD.ProgressDialogHide
    #else if b4a
    ProgressDialogHide
    #End If

There are several cross platform progress indicators, including AnotherProgressBar in XUI Views. It should be very simple to create a dialog with such progress bar and use it with B4XDialog.

BTW, this is a mistake. You should have instead created two subs:

B4X:

Public Sub ShowProgressBar (Text As String)

  #if b4i
    HUD.ProgressDialogShow(Text)
#else if b4a
ProgressDialogShow(Text)
    #End If 
End Sub

Public Sub HideProgressBar
'...

This way you encapsulate the platform differences instead of letting it propagate into your project.
