Before writing my app I read all those GUI dogmas. And they are wrong for me.
There are two scenarios with my app: 1) just one slider is moved and the calculations should be performed; 2) a number of sliders should be moved first an only then the calculations should be performed. Because of the two scenarios I have a toggle button which controls whether the calculations start immediately upon slider movement. In any case, during the calculations the GUI is disabled.
