So I noticed that when using the Setting dialog in TheIDE, changes instantly reflect in the current editor, without having to click Apply or anything.

So I thought that is a great idea and tried to implement that to my dialogs.

I looked over the code in TheIDE and the dialog is opened by Ide::SetupFormat(). Bu this does nothing special. It has a loop like this:

for(;;) {
		int c = dlg.Run();
		
		UpdateFormat(); 
		
		if(c == IDEXIT)
			break;
	}

The thing I'm not figuring out how this updates the editor asynchronously. I tried similar code with my dialog and the updates happen only when closing the dialog...
