Progress bars stop on leaving window

[Friethoe]

Hi,

What do I do wrong??!

I made an application to convert a XML-file into a structured PDF.

During the conversion I use progress bars to monitor the progress, but as soon as a user activates another window or application in the same screen, the progress bars are not being populated anymore.
The conversion is being continued, without any notifications in the application screen.

What's needed to keep the progressbars being populated??

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Try using the page timer to update your progress bar. That will continue firing even if your object/window loses focus.
