Scrolling fast between months

[rosothefox]

When I keep scrolling right quickly, instead of going to previous months it goes to new months (the direction is opposite). Same thing happens in the other direction..

Hello @rosothefox,

This issue is fixed in the pre-release version. You can get the most recent code in the develop branch.

Please close the issue if it works for you. Otherwise let me know!

Hey, thanks so much for your response and the good work!

It works much better now, but still not perfect - because when I scroll fast sometimes it just bounces instead of moving smoothly to the next month. I guess because the screen is not ready yet.

Hello @rosothefox,

CVCalendar in the develop branch simply rejects loading next/previous month if the current loading operation is not over. As a result you won't get unnecessary processor cycles and memory waste. If you're familiar with Google Calendar then the calendar they're using does ultimately the same thing. So this way should work.

If you're not good with how it is let me know what would you like to see instead.

Eugene

Thanks again for your kind reply, I understand how it works.. I think the ideal behavior of the scrolling should be as if it never loads any screens - imagine that it would load 10 screens in the stack instead of 3, and every time he user scroll it will update the 10 screens of the stack. That way the user will be able to scroll freely and never reach a situation where he scrolls and there's no screen ready yet.

I know this is probably a lot of work, but this will be the ultimate behavior for the calendar. I truly appreciate your attention to the users and desire to make the calendar the best one available today, thanks!

Hello @rosothefox,

Loading 10 month views would take too much memory which is unnecessary for most of cases. It's unlikely a user to scroll more than 2 months but still possible. I think I can create a cache scrolling which will be pretty much optimized and in the same time will solve this issue.

It's now a part of 1.1.0 release so you can expect the feature this weekend.

Cool! Thanks a lot!

I said 10 but it can also be 5, I don't know about memory but most calendars load few months in advance

[rosothefox]

Hey! any news when 1.1.0 release will be out?

Hello @rosothefox,

Hopefully I have less work this week and it might come out in the following week or two.
