How to check if computations are done in DataSpell

Question

I am running the following code in DataSpell

some_object = function_with_very_long_computations()

I seem not able to find any indicators in DataSpell to confirm that line execution is completed. Especially in the case where some_object already exists and I am trying to refresh it. I can surely write something new_variable = 3+5 and run it immediately after my main line and check when new_variable is populated, but this looks like an awkward solution.

Any suggestions?

If you run it within a Jupyter notebook, it'll have an indication whether the cell is still running or not.

EDIT:

For Python scripts, there is a button "Show Command Queue" on the Python Console toolbar, which displays a green dot while the script is running (see screenshot). Not the most intuitive UI, but at least it's there.

Thank you, do you by any chance know anything about other mode (not Jupyter notebook)? My whole goal of using DataSpell is to get environment similar to R-studio rather than Jupyter notebook. – user1700890 Aug 29 '22 at 13:54
