Question about no_display #1366

Closed Tiagoquix closed 1 week ago

Tiagoquix commented 1 week ago

When no_display is enabled in the configuration file, the metrics only are updated (both initially and gradually) after showing MangoHUD on the screen?

flightlessmango commented 1 week ago

Yes metric collection stop when no_display is set, unless it's logging

Tiagoquix commented 1 week ago

So, the metrics start after displaying for the time.

Then, after displaying for the first time, if I hide the overlay, what happens to the metrics? Will they stop and then use the cache from the last time when the visibility is toggled later, or will they update in the background (even when hidden)?

flightlessmango commented 1 week ago

It effectively gets paused while hiding, so it's start over again where it left off

Many thanks for the clarifications! :)
