Hi, I got this GUI situation where I don't, for the lack of a better word, want the user to 'overclick' a certain button. hence, my goal is to somehow create a buffer-zone that would allow the use of the Left Mouse button, but not if the person clicks on it a dozen times real fast. Normal use is OK, but I want to cut-out the excess. Can someone help me put this together? Can this b done?

There are many approaches to that situation. I think the most straight forward solution would be to use a SetTimer to Disable the button after the click but then Enable it after x seconds.

You could also record the time each time the button was pressed and compare the times. If they were too close together then the request would be ignored. This can begin to get complicated though.

If you need help coding it, respond, but to answer your question a SetTimer is the best approach.

This doesn't buffer the clicks but cuts-out excessive clicking.
