+# Bug: Timeouts Lost in Nested Application.Run() Calls
+
+## Summary
+
+Timeouts scheduled via `IApplication.AddTimeout()` do not fire correctly when a nested modal dialog is shown using `Application.Run()`. This causes demo keys (and other scheduled timeouts) to be lost when MessageBox or other dialogs are displayed.
+
+## Environment
+
+- **Terminal.Gui Version**: 2.0 (current main branch)
+- **OS**: Windows/Linux/macOS (all platforms affected)
+- **.NET Version**: .NET 8
+
+## Steps to Reproduce
+
+### Minimal Repro Code
+
+```csharp
+using Terminal.Gui;
+
+var app = Application.Create();
+app.Init("FakeDriver");
+
+var mainWindow = new Window { Title = "Main Window" };
+var dialog = new Dialog { Title = "Dialog", Buttons = [new Button { Text = "Ok" }] };
+
+// Schedule timeout at 100ms to show dialog
+app.AddTimeout(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(100), () =>
+{
+    Console.WriteLine("Enter timeout - showing dialog");
+    app.Run(dialog);  // This blocks in a nested run loop
+    Console.WriteLine("Dialog closed");
+    return false;
+});
+
+// Schedule timeout at 200ms to close dialog (should fire while dialog is running)
+app.AddTimeout(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(200), () =>
+{
+    Console.WriteLine("ESC timeout - closing dialog");
+    app.RequestStop(dialog);
+    return false;
+});
+
+// Stop main window after dialog closes
+app.AddTimeout(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(300), () =>
+{
+    app.RequestStop();
+    return false;
+});
+
+app.Run(mainWindow);
+app.Dispose();
+```
+
+### Expected Behavior
+
+- At 100ms: First timeout fires, shows dialog
+- At 200ms: Second timeout fires **while dialog is running**, closes dialog
+- At 300ms: Third timeout fires, closes main window
+- Application exits cleanly
+
+### Actual Behavior
+
+- At 100ms: First timeout fires, shows dialog
+- At 200ms: **Second timeout NEVER fires** - dialog stays open indefinitely
+- Application hangs waiting for dialog to close
+
+## Root Cause
+
+The bug is in `TimedEvents.RunTimersImpl()`:
+
+```csharp
+private void RunTimersImpl()
+{
+    long now = GetTimestampTicks();
+    SortedList<long, Timeout> copy;
+
+    lock (_timeoutsLockToken)
+    {
+        copy = _timeouts;           // ? Copy ALL timeouts
+        _timeouts = new();          // ? Clear the queue
+    }
+
+    foreach ((long k, Timeout timeout) in copy)
+    {
+        if (k < now)
+        {
+            if (timeout.Callback!())  // ? This can block for a long time
+            {
+                AddTimeout(timeout.Span, timeout);
+            }
+        }
+        else
+        {
+            lock (_timeoutsLockToken)
+            {
+                _timeouts.Add(NudgeToUniqueKey(k), timeout);
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### The Problem
+
+1. **All timeouts are removed from the queue** at the start and copied to a local variable
+2. **Callbacks are executed sequentially** in the foreach loop
+3. **When a callback blocks** (e.g., `app.Run(dialog)`), the entire `RunTimersImpl()` method is paused
+4. **Future timeouts are stuck** in the local `copy` variable, inaccessible to the nested run loop
+5. The nested dialog's `RunTimers()` calls see an **empty timeout queue**
+6. Timeouts scheduled before the nested run never fire during the nested run
+
+### Why `now` is captured only once
+
+Additionally, `now = GetTimestampTicks()` is captured once at the start. If a callback takes a long time, `now` becomes stale, and the time evaluation `k < now` uses outdated information.
+
+## Impact
+
+This bug affects:
+
+1. **Example Demo Keys**: The `ExampleDemoKeyStrokesAttribute` feature doesn't work correctly when examples show MessageBox or dialogs. The ESC key to close dialogs is lost.
+
+2. **Any automated testing** that uses timeouts to simulate user input with modal dialogs
+
+3. **Application code** that schedules timeouts expecting them to fire during nested `Application.Run()` calls
+
+## Real-World Example
+
+The bug was discovered in `Examples/Example/Example.cs` which has this demo key sequence:
+
+```csharp
+[assembly: ExampleDemoKeyStrokes(
+    KeyStrokes = ["a", "d", "m", "i", "n", "Tab", 
+                  "p", "a", "s", "s", "w", "o", "r", "d", 
+                  "Enter",  // ? Opens MessageBox
+                  "Esc"],   // ? Should close MessageBox, but never fires
+    Order = 1)]
+```
+
+When "Enter" is pressed, it triggers:
+```csharp
+btnLogin.Accepting += (s, e) =>
+{
+    if (userNameText.Text == "admin" && passwordText.Text == "password")
+    {
+        MessageBox.Query(App, "Logging In", "Login Successful", "Ok");
+        // ? This blocks in a nested Application.Run() call
+        // The ESC timeout scheduled for 1600ms never fires
+    }
+};
+```
+
+## Solution
+
+Rewrite `TimedEvents.RunTimersImpl()` to process timeouts **one at a time** instead of batching them:
+
+```csharp
+private void RunTimersImpl()
+{
+    long now = GetTimestampTicks();
+
+    // Process due timeouts one at a time, without blocking the entire queue
+    while (true)
+    {
+        Timeout? timeoutToExecute = null;
+        long scheduledTime = 0;
+
+        // Find the next due timeout
+        lock (_timeoutsLockToken)
+        {
+            if (_timeouts.Count == 0)
+            {
+                break; // No more timeouts
+            }
+
+            // Re-evaluate current time for each iteration
+            now = GetTimestampTicks();
+            
+            // Check if the earliest timeout is due
+            scheduledTime = _timeouts.Keys[0];
+            
+            if (scheduledTime >= now)
+            {
+                // Earliest timeout is not yet due, we're done
+                break;
+            }
+
+            // This timeout is due - remove it from the queue
+            timeoutToExecute = _timeouts.Values[0];
+            _timeouts.RemoveAt(0);
+        }
+
+        // Execute the callback outside the lock
+        // This allows nested Run() calls to access the timeout queue
+        if (timeoutToExecute != null)
+        {
+            bool repeat = timeoutToExecute.Callback!();
+            
+            if (repeat)
+            {
+                AddTimeout(timeoutToExecute.Span, timeoutToExecute);
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Key Changes
+
+1. **Lock ? Check ? Remove ? Unlock ? Execute** pattern
+2. Only removes **one timeout at a time** that is currently due
+3. Executes callbacks **outside the lock**
+4. Future timeouts **remain in the queue**, accessible to nested `Run()` calls
+5. **Re-evaluates current time** on each iteration to handle long-running callbacks
+
+## Verification
+
+The fix can be verified with these unit tests (all pass after fix):
+
+```csharp
+[Fact]
+public void Timeout_Fires_In_Nested_Run()
+{
+    // Tests that a timeout fires during a nested Application.Run() call
+}
+
+[Fact]
+public void Timeout_Scheduled_Before_Nested_Run_Fires_During_Nested_Run()
+{
+    // Reproduces the exact ESC key issue scenario
+}
+
+[Fact]
+public void Multiple_Timeouts_Fire_In_Correct_Order_With_Nested_Run()
+{
+    // Verifies timeout execution order with nested runs
+}
+```

+
+## Files Changed
+
+- `Terminal.Gui/App/Timeout/TimedEvents.cs` - Fixed `RunTimersImpl()` method
+- `Tests/UnitTestsParallelizable/Application/NestedRunTimeoutTests.cs` - Added comprehensive tests
+
+## Additional Notes
+
+This is a **critical bug** for the Example infrastructure and any code that relies on timeouts working correctly with modal dialogs. The fix is **non-breaking** - all existing code continues to work, but nested run scenarios now work correctly.
