Annotald freezing #79

Open diertani opened 8 years ago

diertani commented 8 years ago

I've been noticing that sometimes annotald just freezes, and the only way to get it working again is to reload the page. I haven't reported this before because I have not been able to isolate under what circumstances this happens; it always seems pretty random.

When this happens, annotald will not let you select any nodes, and basically behaves as though it can't see anything on the tree. It will appear to let you press the buttons on the side -- thus leading me into a false sense of security, as I thought it had been allowing me to save prior to reloading. But (alas) it turns out that the save function is also unavailable despite the buttons appearing to be unfrozen.

I should add: whatever is going on seems to be new within the last couple of months at most.

If this happens again, could you check the javascript console for errors? Instructions in my comment to issue #78.

Will do.

Got it:

Uncaught TypeError: isLeafNode is not a function

This time the side buttons are all greyed out except for Idle (which doesn't actually respond) and Exit. It's possible that was always true and I hadn't noticed.

What I had done immediately before this happened was inadvertently produce a keystroke combination that moved me to the end of the file. I don't think that's always true in freeze cases.

Okay, scratch that, this is a different freezing issue. I've opened a new issue for it.
