Default Tradeskill Event Trigger?

First, I am not trying to create anything automated.

Questions:
  • Is there an OnEvent or other trigger for +Progress, -Progress, +Durability, or -Durability events in EQ2 crafting system? I notice these are not logged.
  • Is there any other trigger for the beginning or end of a crafting round?
Purpose:

I would like to make an obvious countdown bar *behind* the "Event" box in the Tradeskill Crafting window that lights up at the beginning or end of each round. Basically, I want to use status bars as a "border" around the Event box as a more obvious indicator of the 3.75 second timer between crafting rounds.

I'm not sure if I would start 100% orange and shrink down to 0% after 3.75 seconds, or vice versa, but it would be a more visual indicator. With lag, it can be hard to tell when a new round starts, and the only real indicator is to watch the blue/green bars shrink/grow, or to watch the crafting table to see if numbers float up.

My technical difficulties here are 3.75 second countdown timer, and triggering it off an event which as far as I can tell is NOT logged. I'm talking about the numbers of +durability -durability +progress -progress that float up from the table after each crafting round.


I really like Caffeine's EasyView crafting window here:

(surprised it hasn't gotten more attention)

And would add my idea to this UI, if it's possible.
