[Builder] On-mouse-focus reloading of "Select Window" drop-down menu - annoying behavior #413

@Mr-Dispatch

Description

@Mr-Dispatch

The reloading after mouse focus causes multiple resizes as the control is first emptied, and then the items are re-added. If the mouse is sufficiently to the right side of the control, this might trigger further updates as the control loses/gains focus by shrinking/growing. Even without the oscillation, it looks weird / off-putting on its own.

Possible fixes

  • one big update
  • locking the size (or even giving it a minimum size) during the update
  • ?reload on drop-down event?
  • ?batch the small updates?
  • disabling the event-handler until reload is done -- doesn't help with the "flicker", though
