How to run a python script instantly without delay? - noolinrut - 2019-03-19
Hi!
How to run a python script instantly without delay?
Posted in the desired window loading script:
When the window is opened, the script is executed, but always with a delay of 1-2 seconds.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<window id="1110">
<onload>RunScript(special://home/script.py)</onload>
...
How to get rid of the delay? Is there any way to preload it?
The most interesting thing is that if you call window 2 from a script in window 1, the script immediately starts:
xml:
...
<onclick>RunScript(special://home/script.py)</onclick>
...

I've always had a lag with custom scripts. It improved a lot with transitioning into a stand-alone addon.

And there are examples? Or any other solution?

Your suggestion of using script to invoke the window and then from the script a while loop to detect window loaded and start the rest of script sounds an interesting hack but probably bad practice...
