Thanks for your reply, but I think it=92s not a timing problem
The display is only refresh when we quit the function    def
on_runBtn_mouseClick(self, event):

Sorry for my bad English (I=92m French)

Regards

Is it possible that "...process code..." takes such a short period of tim=
e
that you don't see the text because it isn't displayed for long enough?

In that case a "fix" might be to include a time.sleep(5) before each sett=
ing
of the text field's value :-)

Subject: [Pythoncard-users] Question about display

I want to display  a status message (textField1) to show the progress of =
my
process.
The process is initiated on runBtn_mouseClick

class Unitest(model.Background):

    def on_openBackground(self, event):
        self.components.TextField1.text =3D =91Idle=92

    def on_runBtn_mouseClick(self, event):
        self.components.TextField1.text =3D =91Running=92
      =85.process code=85.
        self.components.TextField1.text =3D =91other status message=92
      =85.process code=85.
        self.components.TextField1.text =3D =91end of process=92

but only the last message is display =91end of process=92
How can display the intermediate messages ?

Thanks for suggestions
