Stopping an endless loop?

Post by Peter2 »

I selected a

- Hot folder and
- Output to input-folder config

Of course the result was an endless loop. I found no "Pause / stop" feature, and "Cancel" closed the entire application. How to "pause" an endless or a long-running job?

Please see this suggestion to provide an 'Abort' (or 'Stop' or 'Cancel') button in place of the existing 'Cancel' button which closes the program completely...

Sorry Peter, I think I've corrected the link now but if not I'll have to look again later...

It might have been better with hindsight if I'd linked the other thread to your post on this thread, but both are closely related.
