    I found a very nasty bug in the handling of messages if TsSkinManager.Active = True;

    The following test project will hang if you click the “Start Looping Form” button: [attachment=7679:MessageLoopProblem.zip]

    Sometimes the project crashes with a Cannot paint to Canvas error.

    If you set sSkinManager1.Active to False, the program does not freeze, and you can stop the loop with the Stop button.

    I have a heavy problem with this, because I want to show lines of information to the user with info about what the program is doing. That's not possible now :wacko:

    The problem finally results in an “Out of resources” error.

    Hello!

    Are you sure the issue is not solved?

    Can you recompile the demo and upload Exe here, please?

    The program is recompiled. The problem is this: the program starts off non-responsive. If started from the IDE, it will start to show the counter when the IDE is Alt-Tabbed into view followed by Alt-Tab to bring Project24 into focus again. When running it stand-alone, it was even more difficult to get it going.

    This is the compiled version: [attachment=7695:Project24.exe]

    Thank you, I see the problem.

    Please, remind me a version number of your IDE.

    I tried the same thing with Delphi 7 (Build 8.1) and got the same results. So in Delphi 7 it doesn't work either.

    Thank you. It was two different problems there. I know a reasons now and problems will be solved in the nearest release.

    As a quick solution you can disable animation in the modal form (Form25).

    Stopping animation did the trick.

    Look forward to the bug fix in the next release.
