Description Joseph Pecoraro 2014-08-07 20:57:40 PDT
* SUMMARY
There is what looks like a typo in a comparison in OverviewTimelineView.js.

>     if (!this.currentTime !== oldCurrentTime) {
>         ^ -- why?

This looks like an accident causing the comparison to always be false. Removing it, things still behave as expected.

I know of no user impact from this change. Possible performance improvement?

Did my TreeOutline fix inspire you to search for this needle in a haystack?
Comment 5 Timothy Hatcher 2014-08-07 23:24:45 PDT
Yes, this would be a performance improvement.
