windows this not work why?

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 220, 220, "this not good", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)

I think it is not allowed to nest Start..Drawing()

The only official way is to use a seperate thread (as written in the help)
But not to the same output.

Even if you could nest it, wouldn't that cause serious problems? Especially when working with threads.

what I know is that my first example works the same on Windows and MacOS.
my second example works on Mac OS and doesn't work on Windows
