Do While Not Loop

Hey there. I've been trying to make a loop to make something work, and I would like it to stop when X key is pressed.

So I was thinking it could work like:

Do While Not (key is down):

---stuff I want done goes here

endOfLoop

But so far I've been unsucessful on my attempts.

Here's a screenshot of the last one, maybe someone could give me a hand.

Thanks in advance.

You should probably redo the events in terms of trigger-based rather then a while-not loop.

For example, you can set the text_start to be blinking at default as you did on your example, and only hide it when the key is pressed in another event.

I don't want to hide it. The image is supposed to be fading out and then fading in (Not all the instructions are shown in the screen, since they-re just the same thing).

I need it to do it and not stop until a key is pressed.

I hope that clears it. Thanks again.

Your event does not make much sense, it says:

On start of layout: repeat forever while space is not down: <actions>

Since the status of whether space is down or not only updates at the end of a tick, this will most likely loop forever and hang the app.

Maybe you just need to use 'On key released'?
