Is it normal that formulas are recalculated each time a file is saved? #185

Hello, I noticed that when I put a console.log inside the formula field of a file, it prints in the devtools console every time a file is saved, even if the original file with the formula field is closed... Is this intentional? It bothers me a bit because I try to use long one-line ternary formulas in some of my classes, but it's just not usable right now because of that (every 5 keystrokes my CPU load has a huge spike). |

Yes that's the standard behaviour: unlike dataview, lookup and formula fields are recalculated and "printed" in the note. And since we don't know if a given change in one note has or hasn't an impact on a given formula, the plugin has to recalculate. Maybe could I add a setting to "not autoupdate" (just like for lookup fields) It that makes sense to you, could you open an issue for that? |

in this case, the formula would be updated only when the note is opened again.
