Feature Request - Continue live query on scroll to top #68

Closed Noloxs closed 5 years ago

Noloxs commented 5 years ago

A really helpful addition would be if you could scroll to top to continue a live query.

So you would be able to run a live query. Pause it to review the current data Then simply scroll to top to continue the live view.

I actually think that's by design. Think cases where the stream is so fast that the window will disappear out the bottom immediately when to move to the head of the stream, which would cause you to loose the "view".

Maybe @anagrius would give us some more insights?

@Noloxs Isn't that exactly what happens when you click "Resume Stream"? Else I am misunderstanding what you want.

Noloxs commented 5 years ago

Yes it is the same as when you hit the Resume stream.

It might be an issue the only I encounter because of how i use it. For example.

I know that I could just press the esc button to resume, but this also "at least at times" interrupts my train of thought Also a lot of times, I simply don't notice that it is pause and afterwards find my self scrolling to top to resume.

In hindsight this should probably be taken as input and feedback, depicting an issue I encounter with my use, and asses if it should be written of as a user error or if other users find themselves with similar "issues"

I think I misunderstood your initial idea, about continuing on scroll to top. It is a good idea but it should be a user setting in that case. We will keep it in mind and close this for now. We are adding more user customisation on how search works and will address it at that time.
