Graeme G. once posted the source of or a link to a unit called

Unfortunately it only helps if thread communication (e.g. by TThread.Queue)
is used to notify the main thread). Hence the problem is the same (and
addressable by using checksynchronize() with a decent timeout).
I think you misunderstand TThread.Queue. It does not notify the main thread.
On the contrary, CheckSynchronize needs to be called in order to let
TThread.Queue do its work.
Likewise, TThreadTimer works only if CheckSynchronize is called on a regular
basis in the main thread.
