Property : Halt 
Contents |
[edit] Description
Use the Halt property to control processing while the Dialog Message is displayed.
Selected Processing is suspended while the dialog is displayed. Cleared Processing continues while the dialog is displayed.
You can experiment with this property using the simple function shown below.
public MyFunction()
{
stringField = 'Value BEFORE the dialog message';
dialog message('Halted or Not-Halted');
stringField = 'Value AFTER the dialog message';
}
When this property is selected the "BEFORE" value is assigned to the string, until the dialog is dismissed, then the "AFTER" message is assigned to the string.
When this property is cleared the "BEFORE" value is assigned to the string, the dialog is displayed, and the "AFTER" message is immediately assigned to the string without hesitation. So there is no time to actually see the "BEFORE" message, as it is immediately overwritten by the "AFTER" message.
