Could engine stop/pause running while minimized or not focused?

When I minimize editor or switch window to something else, editor still runing in full capacity.Which in turn slow down other accelrated software I might run (like Photoshop, max modo etc). I don’t want to constantly turn on and off editor, while making adjustments in other apps.

Yeah I also experience that and reported it a while ago. Having it disable real time preview while not the active window would be a great start already.

For people with FPS problems, be sure to turn off real time previews in the viewport similarly to UE1/2/3, it is in the dropdown menu of the viewport. Plus there is also a setting, in preferences I believe, for real time thumbnails in the content browser.

Hey Lukasz,

Thanks for the great suggestion! I’ve submitted it to the team for them to review, so hopefully we can see this feature in a future release.

Best Regards,

Ryan

+1 for this feature. I always have to hault the program by ex. doing a ctrl+o and leaving the window open.
