feature request - enable breakpoints during normal processing

Post by johnp »

I've run into cases where I create a chain of transformations, then decided I need to go back and tweak one of them, say in the middle of the flow. As I tweak it, especially if I'm comparing one branch vs another that is being tweaked, all the subsequent transforms get re-computed even though I'm not looking at them at the moment.


It would be great if the 'toggle breakpoint' option could be used to prevent 're-evaluation' of the subsequent transforms.

So, basically extent the breakpoints to not only work in batch mode but in normal processing.

Thanks!

It would be very complicated to implement what you are suggesting.

You can get a similar effect now by selecting all the transformations following the one you are working on and then clicking the bypass button at the top of the image browser. You can select all the transformations up to the end of a branch using one of the buttons in the image browser tool bar. This will greatly speed up recalculation of the bypassed transformations. When you are done, un-bypass them to restore calculation.

Excellent - I've learned something more about the program. Perfect!


Thanks!
