Perhaps. But it should do that when window gets active (we already catch that signal for redrawing graphics). Typical scenario I am in: plotting routine in terminal window changes figs and I want to see them updated after I switch from terminal back to lyx. > (but stop doing it when they leave the screen).

It seems to me safer still use them, but don't have strong opinion. BTW do you think it would be hard to paralelize the load of the figures in the previewer machinery? I have lot of reports with hundreds of figs and loading the document with all figs takes mins while only one of my cores is busy. Pavel
