The modal dialog does not belong to Flash, it belongs to Windows, and specifically it belongs to the browser window that contains the Flash movie.
This being said, I have a Flash app that uses PrintJob and I just tested keeping my PrintJob dialog open for a full 3 minutes and I did not get an alert that Flash was hung. So, it looks like you have some other issue with your movie and PrintJob isn't to blame. -Steven > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Danny Kodicek > Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 3:26 AM > To: Flashcoders mailing list > Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] PrintJob causes Abort Script error message. > > > >> I would suggest that it is: there's no error in the code, and > >> it's not that > >> the Flash movie itself is running slowly, it's purely a > >> result of user > >> interaction.
