visualtable's hottime and old machines

[mohamida]

Hi Mone, you said:

to try to let the page perform better you could avoid the style change during the initial snapshot applying 0 to setHotTime on the first update per each item

How to do that ?
because the function to detect that it's the first snapshot is done in the onItemUpdate funtion, while setting the hotTime attribute is done in the onChangingValues function ???

you have to pass the information from one callback to the other.

there is not a fixed way to do that, you can leverage the extra fields (see the addField method) or any other idea you may come up with.

Our StocklistDemo uses the extra field approach (see the use of the doFade flag and the #fade field)

HTH
