I think you'll get more predictable timing. doLater() [sorry - I really meant callLater()] doesn't guarantee anything about how much later it might be. - Gordon From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of simonjpalmer Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 2:33 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Whatever happened to Peter Ent's scrolling text ticker? any particular reason why? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com , Gordon Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I recommend using a Timer rather than calling doLater(). - Gordon From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com ] On Behalf Of simonjpalmer Sent: Monday, March 26, 2007 12:39 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Whatever happened to Peter Ent's scrolling text ticker?

Be aware that doLater is replaced by callLater() in 2.x. Similar syntax.
