Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1) launch current trunk (default prefs, default new document)
2) open 'Object > Symbols'
3) select the 'Symbol Signs' symbol set
4) grab the first symbol and drop it onto canvas
5) switch to the 'Current document' symbol set
6) select the symbol in the dialog and click on the button "Remove Symbol from the current document" to edit some of its features on-canvas
7) zoom in on the group in the upper left page corner
8) switch to the node tool and select the rectangle (white stroke, unset fill) stacked at the bottom of the group
9) change the color to red
10) optionally node-edit some of the paths on top of that rectangle
11) deselect everything, reselect the parent group and click on "Add Symbol from the current document" in the symbols dialog
Expected result:
The preview of the symbol in the dialog is updated to reflect the changes just done to it (change background color, etc.).
Actual result:
The symbol preview stays unchanged (previews at different sizes though show the updated image).
Confirmed with r12687 on OS X 10.7.5
Based on tests with archived builds:
- not reproduced with rev <= 12511,
- reproduced with rev >= 12517,
the lack of updating the preview seems to have been introduced with one of the changes in rev 12512 - 12517:
