Cannot focus view/sheet/group after opening an image

[evandrocoan]

Summary

I have a thread continually processing the current file and opening the generated image for PlantUml diagrams:

But doing this, does not restore the focus back after opening the image:

                change_count = view.change_count()
                active_sheet = window.active_sheet()
                group, view_index = window.get_view_index(view)

                create_and_open_image()

                window.focus_view( view )
                window.focus_group( group )
                window.focus_sheet( active_sheet )

After generating the image, I still have to press Ctrl+1 (command: focus_group {"group": 0}) to the focus to be set to the first view/sheet.

I finally make it work by using a 1.0 seconds sleep, 0.5 does work:

                self.sleepEvent.wait( 1.0 )
                print("group: %s" % group)
                window.run_command( "focus_group", {"group": group} )

This is for the issue:

1. Request: Option to display preview in sidebar during typing jvantuyl/sublime_diagram_plugin#61 Request: Option to display preview in sidebar during typing

With this 1.0 delay I cannot implement it, because it will cut off the text typing, as the view will be focused on the image for some milliseconds.

Closing for now as I just saw this:

        sourceFile = view.file_name()
        t = Thread(target=render_and_view, args=(sourceFile, diagrams,))

The open image call seems to be async.

I just confirmed it is working correctly by fully implementing the feature on this pull request:
