How do I keep the action bar clickable when foreground activity has a progressDialog showing?

How to keep action bar "clickable" when foreground activity has a progressDialog showing?

I have a progress dialog that is launched to indicate, data is being uploaded to the server. While this is happening, I want to be able to access other menu items (perhaps to switch activities) in the action bar. But I am not able to get the action bar to respond to touch. Ideas?

Welcome to the forums. What device and android version do you have? Could you post a screenshot with this bar so we can have a better idea? What are you uploading when this bar shows up?
