Best shown with a (pseudo) example:
********************************************************
...
thread = threading.Thread(target=example)
thread.start()
timeline.start() #Assume you have a timeline already to go
def example(self):
x = 0
while 0 < 100000:
x++
********************************************************
In this instance the timeline will start, but nothing will update or change
onscreen until the while loop completes. The solution is to add a
time.sleep(0.1) (or similar) into the while loop.
