Option to Disable Preview and Auto Refresh

What inspired this wish list request? 

Preview for functions under the Tables menu is very useful to check the correct manipulations have been performed.  However, the generation of the preview table can take considerable time if the data tables involved are large.

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

Preference setting to allow for the table preview and table preview auto refresh to be disabled by default.

 

Why is this idea important? 

Saves processing time for the user.
