FIx redraw mechanism to be based on buffer and not viewport #913

Closed LudvigHz closed 2 days ago

LudvigHz commented 1 year ago

Also updates node-sass to latest version to support newer node versions.

The README states that the canvas should redraw when there is 1/2 of the buffer left off-screen on any side of the viewport. However, the code calculates the redraw based on 1/2 of the viewport and not the buffer. This PR fixes this. This means that for buffers larger than the default, we re-render way less often, providing for better performance with large timelines. As it is now, for many tasks (~1000) the canvas continuously re-renders when scrolling, and the rendering cannot keep up with scrolling, forcing the items to appear as they jump around a lot.

I don't know if this repo is actively maintained, but we will use our own fork (NPM) as long as this PR is open and the repo appears unmaintained.

This is obviously not maintained, so I'm going ahead and closing this :)
