Hi,
and the documentation to Button doesn't help?
>>>
Typical possible settings for the Method option include "Preemptive"
and "Queued".
With the default setting Method->"Preemptive", button actions are
performed immediately, preempting any other evaluation, but are
allocated only a limited time to complete.
With the setting Method->"Queued", button actions are added to the
current queue of evaluations, and are performed when other evaluations
are complete. No time limit is applied.
<<<
Hope this makes it clear.
Cheers
Patrick
