body: <p>how to sleep a thread in view class without disabling the touch on imageview?</p>
  
  <p><strong>detailed description :</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have an imageview having on touch listner.
  and a View class having a TimerTask which on an event needs to be stopped for a second.</p>
  
  <p>I used </p>
  
  <pre><code>Thread.sleep(1000);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but, this stops the touch listener too.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong>
  I tried a long for loop, It's still the same.</p>
  
  <p>any alternative  or solution or suggestion appreciated?
  thanks.</p>
