It is not possible to fire event in another tab/new browser window. For >>> example, query tool can be open in another tab. And thus, changes are not >>> reflected there. There are solutions available like updating the >>> localStorage of the browser but those are not reliable and does not work >>> properly on different browsers. >>> >> To communicate between browser tabs we can use cookie polling on client >> side it self (at least it will avoid polling over http). >> The main tab will update only preference specific cookie when preference >> is updated and other tabs will poll required cookies (not all) >> with specific interval (1 second can be configurable). >> > Polling is a solution but I think it should be the last option. http polls > will not be required anyway as we have preference cache in the browser > object. > Maybe it's better to poll only when an editor is open in a separate window? What would we be polling for and how would be tell the backend that something changed during the poll? Thanks Victoria & Joao
