Sneak Preview should be time-based
----------------------------------
Key: JSPWIKI-381
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-381
Project: JSPWiki
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Editors
Affects Versions: 2.8
Reporter: Klaus Malorny
I discovered the new "sneak preview" function of the editor. This is a nice
idea, but I think the way the preview is updated is not optimal. If I
understand this correctly, the preview is updated if the edit control loses the
focus. Also, some extended functions of the editor seem to trigger the update
as well. At least I get some updates when I don't expect them.
I would prefer a solution that is based on the idle time of the user, if this
is possible. If the user is inactive for a certain time and he did some
changes, the update is triggered. Since I assume that the preview includes a
round trip to the server, I would adjust the wait time dynamically. I would
measure the round trip and display time of the last update and would set the
wait time as a multiple of it. In addition to that, I would add an explicit
update button and/or keyboard shortcut to initiate the update.
