Fixed two critical issues with draggable bars: 1. History now only saves on drag end (not during dragging): - Added isDragging state to MainConverter - onValueChange callback now accepts dragging boolean parameter - History useEffect skips saving when isDragging is true - On mouseup/touchend, call onValueChange with dragging=false to trigger save - Prevents hundreds of history entries from a single drag 2. Throttled drag updates for better performance: - Added lastUpdateTime ref to track update frequency - Limited updates to 60fps (every 16ms) - Prevents React from being overwhelmed with rapid state updates - Smoother, more responsive dragging experience How it works: - During drag: onValueChange(value, unit, true) → isDragging=true → history skips - On drag end: onValueChange(value, unit, false) → isDragging=false → history saves - Drag move: throttled to max 60 updates per second This should make bars update smoothly during drag and history clean with only one entry per drag operation. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
