Very slow when hidding/showing items?
Posted: Thu Mar 30, 2023 5:47 pm
I have a function that gets activated when a button is pressed, which is meant to hide or show certain RapaGUI elements according to a boolean value.
Unfortunately, this process seems to be very slow (like a slideshow) on a real 060 Amiga. It works instantly on emulation, so it seems to be heavily CPU-bound.
I've tried adding DisableLineHook() and EnableLineHook() once it's done, but I didn't see much of a difference.
Here's the said function:
Does anyone have any suggestions on how this could be improved?

Code: Select all
Function p_SetPollStatus()
DisableLineHook() ; Temporarily disable this, to increase performance
If poll = True

;when a poll is active, media cannot be used
moai.Set("btn_addmedia", "Hide", True)
Else
;hide relevant area

EndIf
EnableLineHook()
EndFunction
