GH_Document.NewSolution crashing Rhino

window code.gh (8.4 KB) The attached file has a C# component which shows a window with one button. The button click event handler starts a loop with 100 iterations. Every iteration adjusts all sliders plugged into the component and then runs a new solution.

Dynamically updating slider

RandomOptimiser.gh (20.7 KB) [solver] This is a lot easier if you can just have a straight up loop, but that requires your code callstack originates from outside the solution process. So it pretty much requires a UI event to kick things off which in turn requires some UI. The script I wrote uses an _iterations counter which is decremented every time a solution runs. When this counter hits zero, we’re done processing.
