About screen redraw

I'm designing a scratcher plugin, and that involves controlling a knob with a ramp osc, that knob acts as the turntable so you can grab it a move it, the knob goes to a sample read module.

However, when moving the mouse during internal editing, and while moving the window in front panel view, the knob stops redrawing thus making the sound sluggish.

Can future SM version avoid this problem? Now that we have powerful video cards I don't think this would be a problem.

Tried different versions in the settings, from constant update to little redraw updates (fast), this last one works better, but another option, this fast one, but with constant redraw of JUST the knobs while moving things would be good.

Thanks.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
