# DelayDispatcher
> Provides methods to reduce the number of events that are fired, usually so that rapid, imperceptible changes are ignored.
## Definition
**Assembly:** CloudNimble.BlazorEssentials.dll
**Namespace:** CloudNimble.BlazorEssentials.Threading
**Inheritance:** System.Object
## Syntax
```csharp theme={"dark"}
CloudNimble.BlazorEssentials.Threading.DelayDispatcher
```
## Summary
Provides methods to reduce the number of events that are fired, usually so that rapid,
imperceptible changes are ignored.
## Remarks
Throttle() ensures that events are throttled by the interval specified.
Only the last event in the interval sequence of events fires.
Debounce() fires an event only after the specified interval has passed
in which no other pending event has fired. Only the last event in the
sequence is fired.

## Constructors
### .ctor
#### Syntax
```csharp theme={"dark"}
public DelayDispatcher()
```
### .ctor InheritedInherited from `object`
#### Syntax
```csharp theme={"dark"}
public Object()
```
## Properties
### DelayCount
The number of events that have been dropped in a given interval.
#### Syntax
```csharp theme={"dark"}
public int DelayCount { get; internal set; }
```
#### Property Value
Type: `int`
#### Remarks
This value is reset every time the built-in [Timer](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.timers.timer) elapses.
### TimerStarted
The [DateTime](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.datetime) that a new [Timer](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.timers.timer) was started, in UTC.
#### Syntax
```csharp theme={"dark"}
public System.DateTime TimerStarted { get; internal set; }
```
#### Property Value
Type: `System.DateTime`
## Methods
### Debounce
Debounce an event by resetting the event timeout every time the event is
fired. The behavior is that the Action passed is fired only after events
stop firing for the given timeout period.
Use Debounce when you want events to fire only after events stop firing
after the given interval timeout period.
Wrap the logic you would normally use in your event code into
the Action you pass to this method to debounce the event.
