This necessity is not limited to Windows nor to TTimer.

In fact Bob is not doing this (eating up CPU Cycles), but he uses
wait(), which only hampers it's own project.
Actually Bob's wait uses his own TTimer-based code, and is not well
designed.
As Flavio wrote, he would be best to replace all his waits
I use GetTickCount a lot to keep track of timeouts.
On windows, it is guaranteed to be monotonic, so my usual
if GetTickCount-StartTimeTimeout then..
works fine (yes, even when the time wraps around, provided StartTime is
defined as DWORD and Timeout is smaller than a DWORD, of course I could

I guess simply changing your loop to:

repeat
Application.ProcessMessages;
until not timer1.enabled;

should make it work.
That loop will work, but the CPU usage will be 100% and the CPU will run

We don't provide such a version. Where did you get that? How did you
install Lazarus?
Do you use gtk1 or gtk2?
What fpc version do you use?

That is a great idea Mattias!
a timer with 1 as interval is fast enough for responce application and
slow enough to avoid flickering
Thanks!

Another very good way to do this, is using Application.QueueAsync

QueueAsync. Thread safe and multiplatform...
I will look into that Martin, seems like a solution to many problems
Thank you!
