I am trying to make the current thread immediately interruptable.

I currently have a work around where I have an msgbox with a timeout of 0.001, but you can still see it flash on the screen.

Purpose? Code?

My code works fine with an msgbox, but not at all without it. Here is what I think is occuring. When you click on an altsubmit listview A_GuiControlEvent "I" occures before A_guiControlEvent "Normal", but my code does not work with "I" getting called first, because on "I" a very large number of variables get changed that are needed for the functions that get called on "normal". Therefore I need "normal" to occure before "I". By putting an msgbox, it makes the thread for "I" immediately interruptable, so that "normal" inturrupts "I" and is then able to run its course before "I" messes with it's variables. At least, this is my theory.


Code that doesn't work.

AutoHotkey has to check for window messages while a MsgBox is visible for the MsgBox to respond to user input. You may try using Sleep -1 instead:
