`onPreview` and `onTogglePreview` callbacks called oddly

[BenJenkinson]

Describe the bug

The onPreview and onTogglePreview events/callbacks don't seem to be fired in a consistent way.

To Reproduce

Several scenarios are described below, along with the execution order & values provided to the callbacks:

1. Using the Beefree Editor, enable or disable preview mode according to the "Initial State" column.
2. Perform the action described in the "Action" column
3. ✅ Observe that the preview is enabled/disabled as described in the "Final Preview State" column.
4. ❓ Observe that the events/callbacks are fired as described in the "Observed Callbacks" column

#	Initial State	Action	Final State	Observed Callbacks
1	false	Click "Preview" button in editor toolbar	true	onTogglePreview(true)	onPreview not called?
2	true	Click "X" button in preview header	false	onTogglePreview(false)	onPreview not called?
3	false	togglePreview()	true	onPreview(true) onTogglePreview(true)	✅
4	true	togglePreview()	false	onTogglePreview(true) onTogglePreview(true) onPreview(false)	onTogglePreview called twice? with incorrect value?

📚 Documentation

The Beefree docs describe the events as:

Event	Description	Returned Values
onPreview	Fired every time the preview button is pressed.	status (boolean)
onTogglePreview	Fired every time the preview is opened or closed.	status (boolean)

Bugs?

The descriptions in the documentation don't seem to describe the observed behaviour of the events:

• If onPreview is only meant to be fired when the button is pressed, why does it fire when togglePreview() is called? (Scenario: 3, 4)
• If onTogglePreview is only meant to be fired when the preview is opened or closed, why doesn't it fire when the "Preview" button is clicked on the toolbar? (Scenario: 1, 2)
• Are the documentation descriptions for the two events swapped?
• Both methods indicate they accept a status variable, but the variable doesn't seem to reflect the current state of the editor? (Scenario 4)
• Why does onTogglePreview fire twice? (Scenario 4)
• Why does onTogglePreview fire with the wrong value? (Scenario 4)
