RE: [perl-win32-gui-users] problems with combobox

[Piske, H. <Har...@bo...>]

Dude ... you call &settings from an event handler and $Window2->Dialog();
from &settings. That's asking for trouble. Define all your windows and
widgets somewhere. Then call

Win32::GUI::Dialog();

once and only once from the main thread. There has been a recent posting on
how to handle more than one window with still just one Dialog() call.
Remember, as long as one event handler (like your Settings_Click) is avtive,
no other event can get handled. Which may be the reason why your window
freezes - since you call Dialog() inside the event handler, that handler
routine never returns control to the first Dialog() call. I'm not sure if
that's really what happens, I don't have the time to test it.
