Wait one second in running program

Question

dataGridView1.Rows[x1].Cells[y1].Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);

İ want to wait one second before

Answer 1

The Best way to wait without freezing your main thread is using the Task.Delay function.

So your code will look like this

var t = Task.Run(async delegate
{              
    dataGridView1.Rows[x1].Cells[y1].Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
    dataGridView1.Refresh();
    await Task.Delay(1000);             
});
