Interruption of preview rendering
Posted: Thu Aug 15, 2013 2:50 pm
The problem is that showing some tooltips stop rendering of the running application in the Preview window. How to reproduce:
1. Start some application with automatically moving objects by pressing the "Start" button in the Preview.
2. Move mouse over the "Stop" button and wait until its tooltip appears ("Stop application...").
3. Move mouse over the disabled "Start" button and wait until its tooltip should appear ("Stop application...") --> the tooltip does not appear but the Preview updates rendering only in a sub-area where the tooltip would appear. The rest of preview is not moving.
The same happens also when showing tooltips on "Disable FBO" and then "Disable shaders" checkboxes. Also showing the tooltip of Application's Comment button multiple times can result in the same rendering interruption problem.
To return to normal previewing either click the window title bar or move over some button and wait until its tooltip appear or restart application running.
