Thanks, yes I see, that is under windows (XP on VirtualBox, python 2.7.1 and pyqt4 4.7.2 in my case) but under linux (ubuntu 11.10, python 2.7.2+ and pyqt 4.7.3) it only closes after the sleep has finished (or in case of my practical application, until the data processing finished) So any tips from a ubuntu user??? cheers, Janwillem
