Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Although the states provided in state.status are great, it doesn't provide a reliable way to know if a job file is being processed, with the only reliable way to check being whether a job is being processed. For example, if a tool change is taking place the state.status changes away from processing to changingTool. If you want to check within a macro or file, such as a toolchange file if a job is bring processed, the only current way to do this is by checking if a file is loaded.

Describe the solution you propose.

I would suggest that an extra field is added, something like "state.processing" that is true or false. That way someone can easily identify if a job is being processed or not

Describe alternatives you've considered

having to check if job.file.fileName is not null or similar

Provide any additional context or information.
