Hi,

When there is a loop and you use the sleep/wait in each iteration, after the loop is done, there is still one sleep after that. In a foreach or in a for x to y, you know when the last iteration starts, so there is no need to do an extra wait at the end.

This could be difficult when the begin and end are dynamic, but I don't know how you handle the loop. Can the y value in the for x to y change during the loop?

I have setup some loops with 15 minutes sleep/wait time. Having to wait an extra 15 minutes is not what I want.

I tested it in 6.2.2 and 7.1.7 (beta).

Regards

I did, thnx.

Now if I add a loop and use the default loop settings (3 times and no sleep) It takes almost 2 minutes to close the loop window after clicking on OK.

😕 This is not the way it was..

The loop however is better, after the last iteration the wait time is gone. 😁

I created a test job with a 4 wait (1sec) tasks. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th are clones from the 1st. The loop is on the 1st and the 3rd.

Regards,
Erik
