I have a menu that launches seperate exe files, I click on a button to
launch a new exe and there is a delay, on lower spec machiones this delay
can be 5 to 6 seconds. The delay is long enough for impatient users to click
randomly, other exes are of course inadvertently launched and if not then
the mouse clicks are buffered, making a real mess of the users experience. I
have tried several things:
1) Jumping to a different frame (where there is nothing to click on) and
back again (still the clicks are buffered)
2) Using Buddy api to prevent the click (causes a crash)
3) on DisableMouseEvents
set the mouseUpScript to "stopEvent"
set the mouseDownScript to "stopEvent"
end
on EnableMouseEvents
set the mouseUpScript to ""
set the mouseDownScript to ""
end
and this just buffers the clicks too
What can I do to stop this, is there a way to flush the event buffer - or is
this a taboo?
