Hi all,

I use a

'timeControl -releaseCommand "my\_Function();" $gPlackbackSlider `

line to update a certain field in my UI, (couldnt use a attrField control due to other problems), it works fine until a sound track is referenced or imported , then when the timSlider is dragged I get a "Error: Already in scrub mode".

I was wondering if there's any workaround to avoid this, thank you.
