lillo78 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Hi, i am developing a process which will read and display emails from outlook as well as some other info retrieved from a database. Emails and database stuff will be shown in in their respective listviews. So, as this info may take a few seconds (hopefully) to load i was asked to create a little animation , or gif , or whatever... to be shown in the meantime. And here comes my question: Is there a way to load the animation while the other stuff is running in the background with autoit? Or anybody has any idea how to achieve this? i was looking at RunWait, WinWaitActive, WinWait... but seems like those won't serve to my purpose ... Any suggestion, advice, idea will be very welcome. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTFC Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 This nice solution by trancexx runs an animated gif in a separate thread.

RTFC Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 No need to keep me updated. If you run into issues, you'd best post your query in the thread I linked to in my previous post (I'm no gif expert).
