Okay, here is a question.
I have a cocoa app in which I have set up an NSTimer. That timer is
configured to send a message periodically.
There are some sliders on a window in this application. If I start
moving a slider, the timer is frozen until I release the mouse button.
Any way to get the timer pulse delivered while I move the slider?
I considered moving the timer into another thread (NSThread), but I'm
not sure if that is the ideal solution or not?
The other thread should ideally be able to update other controls (not
the sliders) while I am moving the slider.
Any "easy" way to do this in Cocoa?
(I'm fairly new to Cocoa, have been playing with it on and off for a
time, but have been looking at it somewhat more seriously over the
past few days and am quite pleased so far, but this one is a blocker
for what I am trying to do...)
Thank you!
