threading

I have a project that uses a timer to update the position of motors. I am adding 3 more motors and would like to control each of them the same way as the first. I tried moving my controls to a Tab Control but my update timers are not triggering. I made the

UpdateTimer.SynchronizingObject = TheMainForm;

Because if I tried to make it the Tab Page I got an error. I am very new to threaded projects. What am I doing wrong. Will post more code if its needed.

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
