Script pause in MsgBox

[Luigi]

I try search to solve my doubt, maybe I search with wrong expressions/words.

Question: the use of MsgBox pause the script's execution?

[SandelPerieanu]

try with guicreate instead of msgbox and Opt('GUIOnEventMode',1) and it works, will not stop

[JohnOne]

Yes, MsgBox() is a blocking function, as it is waiting for a response from user.

@SandelPerieanu: I try one example folow your tip/instruction with Opt('GUIOnEventMode',1) and GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Close"), but without sucess.

@JohnOne: Thanks for your reply.

#include <Date.au3>

Opt('GuiOnEventMode', 1)
Global $refresh, $msgbox, $label_1, $button_1, $button_2, $button_3
Global $Hour, $Mins, $Secs, $start
$refresh = False
$msgbox = GUICreate('MsgBox - Exemple', 140, 55, -1, -1)
GUISetOnEvent($gui_event_close, '_Close')
GUISetState()
$label_1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel('00:00:00', 5, 5, 130, 20, 0x0201, $WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE)

I am sorry... I try two examples without sucess... I thinking build other module for my script, and left free database's module from msgbox.

If I use MsgBox, the program's looping is paused... This is not good. 8(

[Rogue5099]

Isn't the purpose of the MsgBox to stop script! Why would you want to keep it running without a chance to respond. If it keeps running the loop and it keeps going to the MsgBox line (or GUICreate to look like MsgBox) you will have 1,000's of them within seconds. Unless a "If WinExisit($GUIname) then" is in the loop.

Look at NotifyBox from my sig.
