Example
This example shows how you can allow the user to break out of a loop by using the waitdialog's AllowCancel feature. Note that the loop includes the ui_yield() function. This function allows the user interface to be response even while the code loops.
dim colors as C dim x as waitdialog dim i as N dim count as N colors = a5.Color_Enum() x.Create(3,"percent") x.AllowCancel(.t.) i = 0 count = line_count(colors) for each c in colors ui_yield() i = i + 1 x.set_percent(i,count) x.set_bottom_message(c.value) y = x.user_canceled() if x.user_canceled()then q = ui_msg_box("Notice","Are you sure?",UI_YES_NO_CANCEL) if q = ui_yes_selected then goto next2 else x.Cancel_Cancel() end if end if next next2: x.close()
