My C# WinForms UI has some parameters that the user can adjust using sliders. Many parts of the UI can interactively update based on the slider values. However, some parts require a longer calculation that requires some overhead to set up. I would like to only initiate this update process once the user has stopped moving the sliders for, say, 2 seconds. What’s the best way to do this?
You could use a Timer control that resets the UI if any anything has changes after 2 seconds.
The timer would also check a variable that is flagged after every change, so only when the flag has not changes and timer times out, the UI is upated.
