Hi Ron-

If I understand your scenario properly, then it sounds like your app stops processing when the slider stops sending its action messages to its target. If this is the case, I believe you can set the slider to constantly send messages when the mouse is down via NSControl's setContinuous: method.

HTH!

Folks,

I'm having a problem with Distributed Objects, that I'm not sure how to resolve.

My application runs a background thread that processes images in response to slider controls, as they are tracked. Screen updates are driven through the Distributed Objects mechanism.

The problem is that the main thread's stops processing Distributed Object events whenever the user stops moving the slider (He hasn't released the slider, but is not actively moving it either). As a result, screen updates stop, and the background thread blocks waiting for the foreground thread to update the screen.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Thanks,
