Close GUI while "Sleeping"

[Cherubim]

I have the following problem:

The GUI isnt able to close while Autoit is executing sleep.

Is there a way around this, cause my script uses lots of Sleep funtions?

#region --- GuiBuilder code Start ---
; Script generated by AutoBuilder 0.5 Prototype

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

If Not IsDeclared('WS_CLIPSIBLINGS') Then Global $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS = 0x04000000

GuiCreate("MyGUI", 309, 180,(@DesktopWidth-309)/2, (@DesktopHeight-168)/2 , $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

$Checkbox_1 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("test", 10, 20, 

GuiSetState()
While 1
    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop
    Case Else
        Sleep(10000)
    EndSelect
WEnd
Exit
#endregion --- GuiBuilder generated code End ---

Just an example what i meant

You could try using a HotKey, and use an exit option.

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

Func Terminate()

Exit 0

EndFunc

You have to use the onEvent mode not the Loop one.

Couldn't you just lower the sleep delay to say, 100, so it checks more often and doesn't spend so much time in the sleep mode?

I do agree that OnEvent mode is a better option, but if he wants to stay in GetMsg mode, that should do it.
