message box

[adventuresofgreg]

I used to put a status message with a variable in the message box so when I am processing a huge data file, I can watch the progress, but for some reason, this isn't working anymore. When I start to process a large text file, the app freezes up until the process is complete. I can't even post a progress message in a field - everything freezes as if I set the lockscreen to true (which I have not).

Does anyone know what's going on?

thanks,
Greg

Hi Greg,
try to issue a "wait 0 milliseconds with messages" after the "put myMessageBoxNotification". See if that helps. On very long processing Rev needs some time to do some housekeeping. Wait with messages gives Rev the opportunity.

Yes - thank you. That worked. I was able to see where my script was slowing down and optimize it.
