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

["Mik Kersten" <beatmik@xxxxxxx>]

Jim,

If this is still happening with Mylar 0.9 could you please file a bug
report?  While you're typing Mylar should not be capturing the current
element, only when you stop for long enough for Eclipse to trigger a "post
selection" event (those are what makes Eclipse views like the Outline
indicate the current element).  Since I can not reproduce this, if you file
the bug it would be great if you could include some sample code and
instructions on how to reproduce the bad behavior.

Mik
