Visuals-only Pop-up #90

Closed massoneriaminimale closed 5 months ago

massoneriaminimale commented 6 months ago

Started coding few days ago with this awsome tool, i'm planning to project visuals with it. I'm facing some frame-rate issue with the visuals-only pop up, its working really slow (nothing else running on my macbook pro 2,7 GHz i5 8go RAM).. Any advice ?

@massoneriaminimale Using Visuals-only Popup runs a 2nd canvas in that 2nd window (piping the visuals across) – it sounds like your hardware may be struggling depending on what you're drawing. I'd recommend adding pixelDensity(1) in the setup, which prevents p5.js from using 'retina graphics' (aka, 2x bigger than you see) – things will get a bit softer, but performance should be fine.

Hope lowering the pixelDensity() cleared it up. If still an issue, feel free to re-open this with more details.
