viz.info message delay

[jincheker]

Hi, everyone

I have a question. I define a function in which, a dll file was called, but before calling dll, i would like to display a message on screen.

The code structure is like this:

status_field=vizinfo.add('Ready')

def foo():
    status_field.message("Dll Called")
    ans = load_dll.calculate()

foo()

The problem is, the message is always displayed AFTER all calculation in dll was done. But I want message shown BEFORE load dll

Can anyone give me an idea how can I solve this problem? Thanks

You could create a small delay between the message being displayed and the dll call. Either use a timer function or place your code within a task function and use viztask.waitTime.
