(inner) setupShowHideHandles(uiRoot)
- Description:
Event handler for showing and hiding handles when the mouse is over a column header.
Implementing this behaviour using the :hover CSS pseudoclass is not sufficient, as the mouse may move over the neighbouring header while dragging, leading to some odd behaviour. This allows us to suspend the show/hide behaviour while a handle is being dragged, and so keep the active handle visible until the drag is finished.
