Function add_timeout

pub fn add_timeout<F: FnMut(TimeoutHandle) + 'static>(
    tm: f64,
    cb: F,
) -> TimeoutHandle

Adds a one-shot timeout callback. The timeout duration tm is indicated in seconds This function returns a handle that can be use for future interaction with the timeout Example:

use fltk::{prelude::*, *};
fn main() {
    let callback = |_handle| {
        println!("FIRED");
    };

    let app = app::App::default();
    let mut wind = window::Window::new(100, 100, 400, 300, "");
    wind.show();
    let _handle = app::add_timeout(1.0, callback);
    app.run().unwrap();
}
