ErrorWithTimeoutAsynchronous (Function) In french: ErreurAvecDélaiAsynchrone Displays a custom error message in a non-blocking system error window for a given amount of time. After the timeout, the system window is automatically closed. Remarks: - This is a non-blocking error window. The WLanguage code that follows the call to ErrorWithTimeoutAsynchronous continues to run. To close the window, the user must validate the OK button or wait for the end of the timeout. When the user clicks "OK", the code of a WLanguage procedure can be run.
- In the WLanguage code following the call to the function, another modal window cannot be opened before closing the dialog box.
  To use this function, you must integrate a custom dialog box into your project. For more details, see Customizing dialog boxes.  WINDEV allows you to apply the skin template of your project to this dialog box. For more details, see Customizing dialog boxes.
