I did not know this - is this documented somewhere? Is there is a reason for this restriction? The RB manual does say that "Thread class objects are used to execute code that needs to run independently of the user interface" - it doesn't say they should be used to start UI, but then again it doesn't say threads _shouldn't_ be used to start UI either! > RB uses native threads - does it means that I should not use UI in different > thread? Well, my test indicated that this is not the case. Of course, perhaps it works by chance and is not officially supported and so may break in some futuer version of RB. > Or maybe I do not understand it correctly and above means only that > all UI events are dispatched to main thread only, which would make UI > in other than main thread difficult. I don't know. Perhaps someone from REAL or other more knowledgeable user could clarify this.
