can I use DebugMenu **INSIDE** the editor? #28

jasonswearingen commented 3 months ago

Hello Is there an easy way to use this inside the godot editor? I'd like to see approximate render details during development.

Thank you

You can use the existing View Information and View Frame Time panels in the 3D editor viewport's Perspective menu, but this add-on is not designed to work within the editor. There are no plans to modify it for doing so, as this would need a complete refactor and a different UI.

Note that the 3D editor viewport is not always representative of the performance of the running project, as no game code runs while it's being rendered and its resolution is lower than fullscreen.

thank you, the " View Frame Time" option is what I needed.
