HI all!

I have a project in which there is a script that drives some drawing accompanied by an animation in a window (stack). The problem is that depending on the drawing/animation settings that the user applies, the entire process can take up to a couple of minutes. Even though I have provided a progress bar to give feedback to the user, I have found that while the drawing and animation are taking place, I can't do anything else! - Rev's menus don't respond until the script ends.

I would very much like to be able to carry on with other tasks, while the drawing and the animation keeps running in the background - is that at all possible?

I thought that if I used the 'send ... in time' command form, that it might solve the problem. So setup a button with the send command in a substack, trying to use that to trigger the animation. Nevertheless, even though the button's script is finished, once the drawing script starts in the other stack, I don't seem to be able to use any other interface item until it is finished! What am I missing?

I feel that somehow I should be able to run 2 or more scripts simultaneously - but can't seem to find a way to do that!

thanks in advance for any insights!
