Thankyou very much, that has answered the question, following on from that, - it must be possible to get smaller divisions than one-hundredth, dependant on the the event-loop 'processing' speed and the specific device. Although milli-seconds, (one thousandth of a second), might not yet be possible using such techniques. regards Darren

To: "Palm Developer Forum" <[email protected]> Date: Monday, 17 November, 2008, 5:38 PM Darren, don't know if I get your question right… The time the event loop takes for one loop differs by the work that is done… A nilEvent will typically take less time (less than a tick) than e. g. a redrawing (probably several ticks). As I wrote below, a tick in PalmOS is 1/100s, i. e. increments 100 times a second, i. e. 100 Hz.

Query : is the event loop processing being timed at tick intervals, (1 loop pass per tick), or at clock speed of the specific processor? regards Darren --- On Sat, 15/11/08, Dmitry Grinberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Dmitry Grinberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: better timing than TimGetTick?
