Android Question Label.text="..." changes not showing

[Scotter]

In some parts of my code I put something like, label.text = "Ready" but the contents of that label don't change until it's changed again to some other string.

I know my alpha, color, front are all set right because the next change to label.text causes display on the screen.

Is there some way to force it to display the new contents? Why is this happening? I have version 8.8. Same thing happend in 8.5 and previous versions.

Thanks!

Try adding a Sleep(0) just below the line where you change label text

Or look at the View.Invalidate method: https://www.b4x.com/android/help/views.html#view_invalidate.
Note the documentation:

Invalidates the whole view forcing the view to redraw itself.
Redrawing will only happen when the program can process messages. Usually when it finishes running the current code.

Sleep(0) worked.
Thank you!
