delay & slow #79

Open akokak opened 6 years ago

akokak commented 6 years ago

Delay and Slow

  1. The notepad++ is the lastest version V7.5.6
  2. MarkdownViewerPlusPlus is the lastest version V0.8.2
  3. I open two windows, one is the markdown writing area, and the other is the preview(markdownViewerPlusPlus)
  4. When I input some words in the markdown writing area, the cursor is " Delay and Slowly" to show the words I just inputed.

and

the markdown file is about 800 lines, 25000 charactors.

thanks.

Hi @akokak

Thanks for that. Yeah, the thing is with every change in text everything is redrawn, and that is slow, unfortunately. I have to take some time to implement a delay functionality but haven't yet.

Can you upload your example file somewhere for better testing?

Thanks

Thanks for this great plugin.

I'd like to add my +1 for adding a configurable delay to rendering please (eg. "Render X milliseconds after the last keypress"), and ideally also rendering on a different thread if that's possible. It's very disconcerting not being able to see characters appear as you type them.
