PrintJob works fine in simplistic Flash movies. Try and do anything advanced (such as a stock exchange trading system) and it will cause the alert to appear.

The modal dialog does not belong to Flash, it belongs to Windows, andspecifically 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 testedkeeping my PrintJob dialog open for a full 3 minutes and I did not get analert that Flash was hung.So, it looks like you have some other issue with your movie and PrintJobisn'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.
