            Bug ID: 476142
           Summary: Flickering on preview
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kate
           Version: 23.08.1
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: plugin-preview
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: amanita+kdeb...@mailbox.org
  Target Milestone: ---

The preview plugin is really nice. But it has an issue, when activating the
"auto reload" mode

- loads the page
- you make a change
- it closes the preview and loads it again

This causes a flicker, as the preview goes black for some milliseconds.

An Alternative would be something like only load the updated preview when it is
finished, or always wait x milliseconds (easier but depending on document size
and processor not that easy).

Having the reloaded page fade in using transparency (opposed, current preview
fading out, new preview fading in) would make it look awesome and smooth.

Currently the flickering makes it pretty unpleasant, even though the live mode
is pretty nice.
