After searching hours and hours and debugging and whatnot seems like i just cant find a solution to so simple problem... what i need is something like this

for(int i=0; i<100; i++)
{
wait here 2-3 seconds
string result = doSomeGUIworkHere();

if(result == desiredResult)
{
break;
}
}

I tried Thread.Sleep, timer with elapsed event, task delay with async await... But to no awail. If i use thread.sleep it just blocks thread and wont do doSomeGUIworkHere();
If i use timer then it just fires doSomeGUIworkHere(); 100 times.

Please help.

Use a thread? charlimit

Use a thread? *charlimit*

Any code sample? :)

Why would you have to wait? Maybe theres a better approach to what youre trying to achieve than to wait.

Do not use a thread! That'd be a huge waste of processor time. Just use await or a timer (which is actually the same, await Task.Delay as mentioned above might be the best solution). Can you show us your not working code with async/await?

async void Dank()
{
for(int i=0; i<100; i++)
{
await Task.Delay(2000);
string result = doSomeGUIworkHere();

if(result == desiredResult)
{
break;
}
}
}
should work i guess
