The Event structure collects events into its queue and it waits for you
to proces them. By default it is set to hold off processing other
events until you finish with the one that just occurred. This allows
you to set properties to disable, enable, show, hide, or whatever else
you want to do with it. The other events haven't been thrown away, they
are waiting to be processed.
If you do not want the UI event processing to be synchronized like t
his,
you can turn it off in either the dialog or the popup, I'm not looking
at it right now.
While this disabling will allow your VI to run more or less normal,
because it is still queuing other value change messages, or whatever you
have registered for, you will not want to run the VI for long periods of
time without processing the events.
