    How do I make Flash not look like it's not responding?

    Matthew @ InLight Community Member

      When I run a JSFL script that is pretty intensive and in depth, Flash opens up but doesn't draw itself, and lists "not responding" in the window title bar.

       

      My question is how can I make Flash look like it's alive (either have output show up in the output window, or have the stage update to the current frame that is navigated to from JSFL script, or put up some dialog box like the export movie progress bar)?  The script sometimes takes about 20-40 seconds to run and the user may think that it's actually crashed.

       

      I print out times of all my processes and functions, and eventually I get an output that seems reasonable. I thought printing output might help, but there doesn't seem to be a flush command for it that will force it to be written out.

       

      Thanks.
