down the timed.message

[Rella]

is possible to do actions while the TIMED.MESSAGE is counting??
Exemple:

wait please....
--------------- -->> 5 secs
updating registry

while you insert keys in the regedit

thanx

Hi there, my thinking is unless you have a bucket load of registry
actions to perform..it might not be worthwhile. getting to know
the 'show.statusdialog' actions and 'callback ability to modify headings
etc to let the user know whats happening might be another option.

not much but hope helps a little..

I am new to this product and hav'nt explored the times message stuff
yet, I am curious as to wether the timed message can be , timely made
invisible or 'clicked' by an action etc.. comes up for a little while then
gos away 'by itself'.

hi SUF6NEWBIE

after all thanks for response, then
yes it may be an idea, unfortunately i don't wanna
show to the user what i do with my program on his pc

-for example coping file or installing codecs or others things...
a good timed message for wait my actions is a good idea....
but only the timed.message without doing nothing is a little poor ...



thanks anyway..
bye

For the CallBack function, you don't have to set the text if you don't want to. Sure, you'd have a "process" dialog, but you don't need to detail any text at all. My 2C.
