seekbar

Now look at that! I am having trouble with one of the simplest goals: updating a plain TextView with the value of a SeekBar.

This is my approach:

    @Override
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,
        boolean fromUser) {
    if (fromUser) {
        mInfoText.setText(mFunction.getUserFriendlyString(progress));
    }
}

It basically works, but it kind of blocks the whole UI when I'm dragging. (Note: I tried both View.post() and Activity.runOnUiThread()).

Am I overlooking something?
