Preventing functions from leap frogging each other...

[jack71]

Hello again!  I'm having a problem in my script where one function leap frogs another before it is done.  I wanted to have a SplashText appear for 5 seconds, then SplashOff(), then continue with the script.

If ProcessExists("calc.exe") Then
SplashTextOn("Test", "Message goes here.", -1, -1, -1, -1, 4, "", 24)
sleep(5000)
SplashOff()
 
AnotherFunction()
 
Else
msgbox(0, "No Calc", "Calc Not Loaded")
EndIf
 
Func AnotherFunction()
msgbox(0, "Hi", "I'm another function")
EndFunc

What do you mean by "leapfrog"

Nothing is being skipped.

When the splash turns off, the msgbox comes up, so AnotherFunction is being called.

What do you expect?  Or what are you observing?

You say it how I think it but that's not what I'm observing.  What I'm observing is the msgbox appearing before the splashtext.

Works exactly as I'd expect for me.

OK...the example I posted here was a simplified example...and upon running it it behaves normally.  I'm an idiot.  I declared a local $var = result of a function in the beginning of my script and it was causing the msgbox to appear before the splash.  So I just declared the $var as Local and then mad the $var = result in the function itself instead of the beginning.  Sorry .
