Ui hangs when populating table using updateLines

[emaddocks]

We are trying to populate a Table using the updateLines() function with a considerable amount of data (thousands of rows by 20 columns). When the updateLines() function is called the Ui hangs/freezes until it completes the table update.

Is there a recommended limit of table size in maxElements? (where maxElements = maxColumns * maxRows)

We've tried adjusting the updateLinesThreshold but it doesn't seem to make a difference given the size of data we are dealing with.

Cheers
Eric

The AEScreen also uses the updateLines() function and it can handle thousand of lines.
Possibly it can be improved if "updatesEnabled" is set the to FALSE before updating the lines in the table.
If you want to fill a table "from scratch" you can also use appendLines.
