Title: Docked Controlbar in BricsCAD
Post by: Jim Short on December 07, 2013, 07:51:39 AM
As far as I can tell, a docked controlbar in bricscad acts synchronous even when set as asynchronous.
Is this true?
7.0.1.1 & v14.1.11

What happens that makes you think it's asynchronous?

I just checked this in Acad2K4 as well.
The browser is frozen while a process is being handled by the display. A cancel button on the browser does not respond until process is complete. Every control on the browser is set to asynchronous.

It sounds like you're describing a modal UI, which could come from either synchronous or asynchronous event handlers. Perhaps you could build a small demo project to demonstrate the problem.

This is the same control bar imported from ObjectDCL. The one that worked fine in the objectDCL2004.arx. I just finished setting up a shared workspace that handles opendcl in autodad2k4 and 2010, and bricscadv14. I bet if I were to set up a controlbar as a sample, it would work fine. And, that in the process the difference may be revealed. This will have to wait till time permits. Thanks.

Disregard this thread for now.

Please keep me posted. If you can attach or email sample code to reproduce the problem, I'll be happy to investigate.
