Please, please can someone put my mind at rest and tell me why neither the cancelbutton or the escape key exits my loop. >:O here is the chunk of the loop in question. There is a large delay while the images load, but i dont understand why its not buffering the keyhit/button click SetGadgetText(pblabel,"Loading Colormap......") proc=proc+1;UpdateProgBar(pbar,Float(proc)/Float(processes)) inmapcolor:TPixmap=LoadPixmap(colorfile$) SetGadgetText(pblabel,"Loading Alphamap......") proc=proc+1;UpdateProgBar(pbar,Float(proc)/Float(processes)) inmapalpha:TPixmap=LoadPixmap(alphafile$) Select WaitEvent() Case EVENT_GADGETACTION ' interacted with gadget Local esrc:Object=EventSource() Select esrc Case cancelit Exit End Select Case EVENT_KEYUP Select EventData() Case KEY_ESCAPE Exit End Select Case EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE ' close gadget Exit End Select |

I would take out input handling from the core loop due to the modal behavior of some gadgets. Use a hook for the input handling and set a global "quit" variable to true to leave the loop. Then this type of problem shouldn't be present anymore. At least beside the load. The load puts the whole app on hold until finished. So no events are processed and potentially could overwrite old events at some point. |
