Sequence leaves interface locked upon completion

#1

Post by lowenthalm »

The following sequence runs autofocus and completes successfully without an error. However, 4.1.10652.0 is left in a state where all controls are locked. I can't even click on the Sharpcap window close box. I essentially have to force a quit. I have attached the log file with the sequence activity at the end.

SEQUENCE
STILL MODE
PRESERVE CAMERA SETTINGS
FOCUSER CONNECT
SET EXPOSURE TO 2
SET GAIN TO 320
SET CONTROL "Subtract Dark" TO "Hot Pixel Removal Only"
UNLOCK CONTROLS
FOCUSER MOVE TO 23050
COUNTDOWN FOR 3 SHOWING "Please Wait..."
AUTOFOCUS FROM 23000 TO 22850 STEP COUNT 30 BACKLASH 53
END UNLOCK
END PRESERVE
LIVE MODE
END SEQUENCE

Hi,

OK, for now the best bet is to replace the countdown step with a simple delay. The current code gets muddled about the number of times the window has been disabled if you have a countdown inside an 'unlock controls' (or an unlock controls inside another one too I should think).

I have a proper fix for this that will be in the next update.

cheers,

Robin

Aha. Gotcha. Thanks for work around for now.

I am cleaning up some of my old sequences so they take advantage of the new functionality (like preserving plate solve with ROI changes! Woohoo!). I'll keep exercising Sharpcap 4.1. Its looking like a really good release.
