Status Bar Text window as message center
posted

I'm using a text panel in center of my status bar to display messages.  Right now I'm using a timer on the form that when it cycles it clears out the message.  Problem is if happens to cycle right after the text value gets set in the message panel the user doesn't get much time to see it.

I'm looking for a method that will actually clear out the text after a certain amount of time after the value is set (ie. 10 seconds)

Any suggests would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    What I typically do is create a method that sets the text and also starts (or re-starts) the timer. And then always use the same method to set the text.
