Using PostEvent causes the main window to not show the mouse when it is moved over it and I can't click anything. It also causes some of the gadgets to not display properly.

Code: Select all

  Event = WaitWindowEvent(1)
  Select Event
    Case #Event_Update_Video
      SetGadgetState(#imgVideo, ImageID(Param\CaptureImage)) ; update the video capture output

Any ideas why that is?

I think for what I am doing, it is fine to do it in a thread. I am updating an image which according to the documentation is OK

If you need to display graphics in threads use Images and 2DDrawing instead.

Without your code we cannot make a statement.
However, we suspect that you are carrying out too many updates via PostEvent.

I think you are right, I was running the thread loop at maximum speed, so probably too many
