I would suggest the same strategy of Maarten. I've added the time-lapse 
refresh just after  some user requested it but it is not really obvious 
how to get right the moment to refresh the document and I have also 
problems with TeXniscope 0.3.4 trying to refresh too early. The best 
strategy is to tell him to do that (and disable auto-refresh from the 
Preferences). However there is a default to do that. Just read the help 
and you will find:

  Setting the auto-refresh delay (in seconds)
 defaults write TeXniscope AutoRefreshInterval 2.0

Best,
Massimiliano
