| Summary | 0002260: Metabug: Long-running code that blocks the UI | ||||
| Description | There's long running code that blocks the UI in many parts of Scribus. This bug is here to identify and keep track of them. It's also a good place to point to discussion on these issues. Blocking the UI is bad, because (a) it means there's no way to let the user cancel the long-running operation, and (b) it makes Scribus appear to have hung, to the point where we don't even redraw. | ||||

Known problem areas include: Where we might want to let the user keep on working: - PS import - SVG import - PDF/PS/EPS rasterisation for pic frame (less problematic) Where locking the UI is probably OK, but we should provide progress and cancel: - PDF export - Printing - Other export callGS(...) is one function that needs looking at. |
