Currently Pro 3.3.1 seems to redraw and do things in an open attribute table while I am changing colours in the symbology tab.

Please add some logic to Pro that prevents it from doing things unrelated to what the user is busy doing.

I suspect it has to do with the Auto Apply of changes in symbology but still - changing a colour should not require me to wait while the attribute table is redrawn.

My thinking for your specific complaint is that it reloads the table upon re-rendering to see if anything has changed-- it has to check anyway, so it might as well get the latest. That being said, it is absolutely annoying. Out of curiosity, do things speed up when the table is closed and you chance the symbology?

You want to be extra annoyed? 

It'll reload EVERY open attribute table whenever you change almost any property for a layer, regardless of whether that table view belongs to that layer. I reported this specific behaviour as a bug this UC 2024.
