Hi thanks for your reply,

Can you please try the below one,

Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayMessage({
    text : "Please wait, while loading your data",
    spanClass : "wait",
    displayTime : 0
});

‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

If possible, can you please share your code as well?

Hi i extended actions.js and edited the existing function onActionSimpleRepoAction

This is the code from actions.js

onActionSimpleRepoAction: function dlA_onActionSimpleRepoAction(record, owner)
      {
   YAHOO.Bubbling.fire("registerAction", {
      actionName : "someco-web-enable",
      fn: function onGlacierArchiveAction(record, owner) {
         
         this.widgets.waitDialog = Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayMessage({
            text : "testtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt",
            spanClass : "wait",
            displayTime : 100000
         });
         
         // Get action params
            var params = this.getAction(record, owner).params,
               displayName = record.displayName,
               namedParams = ["function", "action", "success", "successMessage", "failure", "failureMessage"],
               repoActionParams = {};

            for (var name in params)
            {
               if (params.hasOwnProperty(name) && !Alfresco.util.arrayContains(namedParams, name))
               {
                  repoActionParams[name] = params[name];
               }
            }

            // Deactivate action
            var ownerTitle = owner.title;
            owner.title = owner.title + "_deactivated";

            // Prepare genericAction config
            var config =
            {
               success:
               {
                  event:
                  {
                     name: "metadataRefresh",
                     obj: record
                  }
               },
               failure:
               {
                  message: this.msg(params.failureMessage, displayName),
                  fn: function showAction()
                  {
                     owner.title = ownerTitle;
                  },
                  scope: this
               },
               webscript:
               {
                  method: Alfresco.util.Ajax.POST,
                  stem: Alfresco.constants.PROXY_URI + "api/",
                  name: "actionQueue"
               },
               config:
               {
                  requestContentType: Alfresco.util.Ajax.JSON,
                  dataObj:
                  {
                     actionedUponNode: record.nodeRef,
                     actionDefinitionName: params.action,
                     parameterValues: repoActionParams
                  }
               }
            };


This is the code from share-custom-config.xml
