Is there a way to exclude timers from pausing? Topic is solved

[Loop]

My script looks like this:

Code: Select all

CoordMode, ToolTip
i := 1
SetTimer, Timer, 500

Loop   {
   ToolTip % "Loop count: " . A_Index, 0, 0, 1
   Sleep, 500
}

Timer:
   ToolTip % "Timer count: " . i++, 200, 0, 2
   Return


F6::Pause

Now when I pause my script, the loop should pause but timer should keep running.

Does anyone have an idea?
Many thanks in advance

Why should the timer keep running?

Code: Select all

CoordMode, ToolTip
i := 1
DllCall("SetTimer", "Ptr", A_ScriptHwnd, "Ptr", id := 1, "UInt", 500, "Ptr", RegisterCallback("MyTimer", "F"))

Loop   {
   ToolTip % "Loop count: " . A_Index, 0, 0, 1
   Sleep, 500
}

MyTimer() {
   global i
   ToolTip % "Timer count: " . i++, 200, 0, 2
}

F6::Pause
