Does anybody have any example code using  Object.Lock and Object.Unlock? I have tried all sorts of combinations but can't get anything to work.

 The QT4 RichText editor example had a good display of this (long time since I read it). It enables you to freeze an object/control, i.e. hinder it from raising events while carrying out other tasks. In that example it was about setting format and updating tool button's status while typing if I remember correctly.

Just a little and simple example:

Code

Public Sub ToggleButton1_Click()

  If ToggleButton1.Value Then
    Object.Lock(Button1)
    ToggleButton1.Text = "Now Button1's locked !"    ' Button1 click event will not be raised !
  Else
    Object.Unlock(Button1)
    ToggleButton1.Text = "Now Button1's unlocked !"  ' Button1 click event will be raised !
  Endif
  
End


Public Sub Button1_Click()

  Print "Sum liber !"

End
Europaeus sum !

Thanks both.

My error was to think that the 'Object' part of 'Object.Lock' was the object so I tried 'Button1.Lock' and similar.

Put it down to the age….
