Question about new macro behavior

[Gintaras]

Function threads don't change tray icon. You can use AddTrayIcon.

do you use mac "sub.Convert" instead of sub.Convert to allow asynchro running?

Yes, it executes #sub Convert in new thread.

If I want to stop process, what is the correct way

If want to have a hotkey to end a thread, you can create new function that calls EndThread, and assign a hotkey trigger.

Macro M1
Trigger $sm "Test convert"     

Code:

Copy      Help

;\
function $files
str f
foreach f files
,out f
,mac "sub.Convert" "" f


#sub Convert
function $f

lock
AddTrayIcon "$qm$\copy.ico" F"converting {f}"
mes F"converting {f}"

Function end_convert
Trigger CAe     

Code:

Copy      Help

;Ctrl+Alt+E

EndThread "M1:Convert"

Or right click or Ctrl+click in Running items. Or use QM tray icon menu -> Threads.
Or Ctrl+click tray icon added by AddTrayIcon. But it does not work if the thread does not process messages.
