Macfussion GUI forces Switch video card #14

Open ipartner opened 9 years ago

ipartner commented 9 years ago

Hi. Macfusion 2.0.5-dev When I open the gui the video card is switched to the Discrete one. on close it returns. I dont know if this is a bug but that means when you have open the app you battery will dri faster.

I'm not aware of any specific part in the code base that would force this change, this may be because MacFusion is compiled against the 10.7 SDK. Totally a shot in the dark. Out of curiosity how do you check which video card is on use?

You can also observe the discrete dependency with the Activity Monitor: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201464#energy

Just adding https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/content/qa/qa1734/_index.html might already be enough. I gave it a try and the app at least didn't crash so far...

Even though I observed a new strange behavior that might be totally unrelated. After closing the configuration/settings/main window of MacFusion the app kept running in the doc but didn't spawn a new window upon clicking on it.
