When I give a non-tcl command in the Tcl console in the PlanAhead tool, the Tcl Command line progress keeps runningand does not close the process even after clicking the Close button.
Why is this happening?
If you issue a non-tcl command in the Tcl console, the "Tcl Command Line" progress window pops up.The progress window remains until the command has completed.
This effectively locks PlanAhead from use while the command is being run.
If the Tcl console is used to launch another application (e.g., text Editor) or an infinite loop, PlanAhead might appear to hang.
To work around the issue, close the application that was executed from the Tcl shell, or kill any processes that are in an infinite loop.
If you cannot find the application or process that is holding control over the Tcl shell, you can close the PlanAhead tool. This subsequently kills operations being run from the PlanAhead tool and allows a new session to be started.
