G'MIC-QT Feature Request: Do not change the output of preview when changing options.

I would like to have the option of the output not changing after I change a option within G’MIC-QT interface. However, I’m not sure how feasible this would be.

Can there be a new command where you store output of a image in a temporary place, and then retrieve it? This would allow the above option to be feasible for GUI filter developers. It is to avoid recalculation when changing a option that would not change the preview output.

When defining your filter parameter, put an underscore before the parameter type, to make it “non responsive” , i.e. not refreshing the preview when its value changes :

Value = _float(10,0,100)

Closer, but not exactly what I want. Right now, this interferes with the dynamic gui. Basically, I want G’MIC-QT to do the task as normally, but the preview itself doesn’t change. This will allow me to make the dynamic gui more responsive.

I think a double underscore version which does what I want is all that needed.
