Delay regeneration of previews on zoom changes
Until now the regeneration process was starting as soon as the zoom scale
factor was changed. This was causing some glitches, especially if the zoom
was changed by the mouse wheel, as on each change the process was started
again and again making zoom changes painful and causing races such that
one could end up with the text at some zoom factor and the previews at
another one. After this commit, the regeneration is started only after
the zoom factor has been stable for about 1 second. In this way, one can
use the mouse wheel for changing back and forth the zoom factor at own's
heart desire without any slow down due to the regeneration process running
in the background. For those using previews with numbered math equations,
a nice possibility for getting the equations correctly numbered in sequence
(after removing or adding an equation) is using the shortcuts Alt+ and Alt-
in rapid sequence (less than a second between the keystrokes). Previously,
this would have triggered twice the regeneration, but now only once.
Richard, the attached would be the corresponding patch for stable.
I have been testing it quite heavily and it seems to work w/o glitches.
Do you think this should go to 2.1.4, or should we wait for 2.1.5, so it
can be tested a bit more? This is not a regression, right?
