Timing problems upon TP get online

I added some pages to my TP ( all the MAX pages)

I am listening to all my TPS online messages, and then do some do_push commands to simulate user commands so that they will be sync after reboot/loading.

Everything was working ok until I added the pages. from some reason, now I am doing the same code, but from looking at the logs, look like the page command coming from the TP Power up page in TP design is coming AFTER my commnad( line 71) , and all I see is this page and all my popups are going away....

When debuging it, it working ok. I guess the debuger is solving the timing issue...

Any way to solve that?


Thanks,

Ady.

P.s.

I thought listening to "start up" string (TPDesign field) instead of online event will solve that, but I don't get this message at all....
Wakeup is working ok, but Startup - not. Just don't get string from the panel.

    From where are you calling the Do_Push? In Define_Start or the TPs Online_Event?

    The MAX pages have a notorious habit of popping up at odd times. I find that you have to puta delay or start a timeline that waits as much as 60 seconds to allow the MAX pages to get done doing whatever it is they do. Otherwise you'll be stuck on that white screen all the time.

    I don't like to use thier interface for that reason. I've ranted about it before, so I'll stop now.

    I added them to the project, and now we are doing redesign of the look.

    you are saying I am getting the white screen from MAX?

    But why?

    The log show a strange command in line 71

    I was referring to the fact that the old MAX module would periodically send the touch panel to the MAX's home page without provocation. We'd get a call from our customer's saying the touch panel keeps going to a white screen.

    It was meant to be mildly humorous. Sorry that it wasn't...

    Eric, it use to behave like this, but I removed the pages and made them popup pages to sit inside our interface frame.

    so now it don't, but maybe its some commnad that coming from the module and I can't see it?

    Guys, Any more Ideas?

    I change the names of panel pages so UI modules can't mess with the flips and popups. Naturally, there are some you want to be controlled by the module, but mostly I would rather do it myself. Particularly annoying are modules that send a PPX command, without any concern whatsoever as to what the rest of the program might be doing, or how your panel design operates.

    Bless you Dave!

    Searching in the MAX UI module got me this line:

    DATA_EVENT[dvTP]
    {
    ONLINE:
    .
    .
    .
    .

    SEND_COMMAND dvTP, 'TPAGEON'
    SEND_COMMAND dvTP, '@PPX' // Popups off
    .
    .
    }


    From some reason they are not in my log...so I seached only for PPA,PPN and not PPX
    And also TP that have old TP file version but runing the module, don't do that...

    I will remove them and try again tommorow, I will update results here.

    Thanks!
