I am just updating the document attribute collaboratively and it’s working fine. But based on this document attribute, I need to re-render all the nodes. Since there is no other UI change it looks like rendering is not happening with this. How do I force rendering both locally & collaboratively? Thanks in advance!
Hi I am also looking for a solution for the same use case…
What does ‘updating the document attribute’ mean, precisely?
Thanks for responding! It is updating the top-level document node’s attribute.
How? What does the code look like?
When a user selects an item in the menu displayed by a (prosemirror) plugin, a document node attribute step transaction is fired. This updated document node’s attribute good. Based on this updated attribute, each paragraph node’s rendering depends, which is not happening with this. If I type in any characters ie making an update to any paragraph it renders correctly, but I want all the paragraphs’ node’s to be rendered without user intervention. This paragraph uses a custom node view in the plugin to render as desired. Assume making the editor’s doc view’s content dirty will render automatically?
A paragraph’s rendered HTML looks like this:
<p stylename="None" custom="XXX" style="user-select: none;"><span contenteditable="false" class="custom" style="color: black;">(XXX) </span><span class="text">Hello</span></p>
Out of this <span contenteditable="false" class="custom" style="color: black;">(XXX) </span> is rendered based on the document node’s attribute ie XXX is value is changed based on that attribute.
At a glance it seems like the node.sameMarkup check in NodeViewDesc.update should return false causing a full redraw in this situation. You could try investigating why that isn’t happening.
I already had investigated that. NodeViewDesc.update isn’t even called, b’coz I believe there are no changes made to the paragraph nodes.
That’s weird. Did you declare your attributes in the schema? When the document changes, EditorView.updateStateInner should definitely call NodeViewDesc.update.
Yes, attributes are declared in the schema and attributes values are set to fine, but rendering of each paragraph node is not happening.
