Need help with API

[KullTheAtlantis]

Hi! It is my first post here. Since a long time I have a huge problem: whenever I execute a long computational algorithm from let's say child window I'm unable to maximize, minimize or in general I don't have control on any open window either main or other child. My PowerBuildr application just freezes for as long as algorithm finishes. Is it a normal behavior? Is it any way around it?
I'll really appreciate any help.

Include calls to yield() function in your long computational algorithm. From PB Help,"Include Yield within a loop so that other processes can happen. For example, use Yield to allow end users to interrupt a loop.

Except Yield try something different.If yoy want to rum the algorithm anyway and still want to work in your application try to use SharedObjectGet,SharedObjectRegister,SharedObjectUnregister.There are examples in PB help
