Yeah. But we really should have a way to declare beads that are injected. Since we are already using CSS files to declare beads of specific types, maybe we can abuse CSS a bit more and allow declaring an array of beads there?
Either way, I think the code which delays layout of hidden elements blows up layout in subtle ways. I’m reverting that for now. Sometime when I have the cycles maybe I’ll look at this again. > On Aug 8, 2017, at 12:08 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com.INVALID> wrote: > > I hear you, but IMO, that's PAYG.
