Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I wonder if there might not be a way to allow users to break out of an "Infinite Loop" (white screen)... maybe some emergency key combination like Control+Alt+Escape?

When developing a script, on many occasions I've accidentally set a conditional loop that never becomes true (never exits)... or used a loop value so large I finally have to use the Task Manager to quit TVPaint. Infinite Loop (white screen) is especially frustrating if it happens before hours of work can be saved...

YEs, not sure if i'm hijacking this request.

but a similar problem goes when loading a range of files.
recently i dragged a collection of png's, a numbered sequence of 40 frames, into tvpaint.
and tvpaint after loading the sequence was finished ...a new loadpanel popped up for the second frame and after the sequence loaded a second time a new panel popped up...
and so on
40 times without option to escape!
i had to click cancel 40 times!

When loading a video file you can hit escape to interrupt the loading (yes I agree that it does not always work and it's not immediate anyway).

When running a script I'm not sure, but indeed it could be an improvement. At the very least for these two operations.
