Window freezes during long running processes

Hello,

With long-running Windev processes (e.g. unpacking many zip files) I have the problem that when I switch to another programme with Alt+Tab and then want to return with Alt+Tab, the screen is frozen until the process is finished.

Is there a way to "wake up" the Windev application at regular intervals (5 seconds)?

The problem is purely a display problem; the unpacking of the zip files continues.

Thank you and best regards,

Volker

Hello Volker,
in zipExtractFile or zipExtractAll you can specify a windev procedure to monitor extraction progress.
I think you can use such procedure to update a progressbar and use MultiTask(-1) or MultiTaskRedraw.
Or you can launch unpacking procedure in a separate task...

Hope this helps

Thank you. That was what I was looking for.
