Not sure this is not the desired behavior. One could argue that only boxes that are relevant to the model calculation should force a calculation. For example clicking on custom pinhole also wont force a calculation even if the radius parameter has changed. Or change the q range limits and hit enter … that will move the cursor lines but also not update the model.

Discussing with Richard and Andrew we agree this should NOT in fact be changed.

HOWEVER:

Richard points out that if the user changes a value that affects the model calculation without computing there should be some obvious way in the GUI to warn them that the graph they are looking at is NOT based on the latest parameters. This could for example be the compute button turning red, the background to the whole page to some color, a flashing thingy jobber etc…

Moving this to 5.0 (new GUI)
