I like both those ideas. I have mixed feelings about the option to not change line wrapping until a resize is over. Sounds like it would help in the situation we're discussing but it also feels like a workaround for something that should really work. Could this be connected with the use of native controls, or lack thereof, in Livecode?
I should also say that I'm not seeing the line wrapping delay in TextEdit. I'm on Yosemite and when I resize a TextEdit window horizontally, I see the line wrapping changing as the resize is happening not when I stop resizing. Maybe there's a Preference setting that affects things?
