Hi,
Quote:

I trigger the while loop in a button. However, when I use sleep(), the whole program waits/freezes for the duration of sleep. Is there a way to run the loop parallel?

If you really need to loop -for a long time- in any function in a U++ gui app, you need to use Ctrl::ProcessEvents(). This function processes UI input/events.

E.g.


while(my_condition) {
 Ctrl::ProcessEvents();
 Sleep(20)
}

Best regards,
Oblivion
