Re: [mylar-dev] Context capture pause while typing

If you are using Project Explorer in 'Link with Editor' mode then this
problem can arise (see link below). The work-around is to use the
Package Explorer or not use the linked mode. If you aren't using the
Project Explorer and are still seeing these problems, please post a
bug report.

Hi all,
I noticed that Mylar is attempting to capture context while I'm typing
and highlights the thing I'm typing, whether it's a method, variable,
or something else.  As a result, when I am typing sometimes, the
object is automatically highlighted and overwritten when I continue to
type.  Fortunately I realized that Mylar was trying to capture the new
"thing" in the current context and thought to pause context capturing,
but this may not be entirely intuitive, especially for new users.
Would it be possible to pause context capturing while typing (e.g.
wait 3 seconds after typing has stopped), and then resume context
capture when typing has stopped?

I don't know if anyone else has run into this, but I think it would
help quite a bit.  I'd be happy to submit a bug if you think this
makes sense.

Thanks,
Jim
