my form looks like this:

still workingstill working

big textbox with a scrollbar. on the first pic it is still scrolling...

stopped scrollingstopped scrolling

but after a while (when the process takes too long) it stops scrolling and windows shuffles it into the background, inventor window whites out, etc. i guess it's some windows thing, if a process is "not responding" for like 10 seconds or so, it thinks it is stuck, funnily the text is still gets added to the textbox and you see the scrollbar getting smaller and smaller as the box contents get longer, but windows still thinks womehow it is a stuck process, even if it is clearly doing something.

and it just stops scrolling if i switch to an other window. textbox is set to have focus every time a line of text is added to it and it is also repainted and everything, but no scrolly...

this mostly happens if the process is taking longer than that supposed "threshold" for "stuck process" timeout.
