    Hi,

    it would be great, if the document generation could be cancelled somehow. Especially in case of an error, it doesn’t necessarily make sense to continue.

    In my concrete case, I loaded a document from a colleague, which also contained some script generated parts. I missed to load the scripts into EA, so they weren’t available.
    During document generation, I got plenty of message boxes, telling me that a script error occurred. Unfortunately, they only contain an “OK” button:

    I think in any error case, the user should get an option to cancel. Why should I continue the document generation, if I already know that it failed?

    Best regards
    Markus

    Good idea – I will add to the backlog for V4.
    We don’t have a general a function to cancel generation, because that would mean we would have to make the generator run in a separate thread. We tried that a while back ,and it created a world of problem when talking to Word!
