Background Tasks
The Background Tasks feature allows you to program AirSpeed Multi Stream to perform
time-consuming, low-priority tasks in the background while you continue your work. When
AirSpeed Multi Stream is working on background tasks, a progress bar appears on the Status
bar.
If you click on the Status bar while a task (such as generating a proxy) is taking place, the
Background Task Status dialog box opens.
You are not required to do anything or wait for processing to take place.
You can do one of the following, depending upon the tasks that are pending:
• Cancel the current task by clicking the Cancel Current button.
• Cancel pending tasks, by clicking the pending task in the Pending Tasks area, and then
clicking the Cancel Task button.
• Move a pending task to the top of the list by selecting the pending task, and then
clicking the RushTask button.
