pause #18

Closed fernLightning closed 2 years ago

A pause button.

because some heavy shaders can cause some browsers (safari) to become very unresponsive.

Possibly even better if pause button would be one that automatically pauses when rendering takes more than 500ms?

mrdoob commented 11 years ago

Ah I though it was a timer pause. Have you tried reducing the quality in such cases?

fernLightning commented 11 years ago

Reducing the quality works - but only if the UI is responsive, e.g. often it's a case of holding the button down for 10seconds and hope the popup menu appears eventually. Beachballing occasionally occurs too.

My usual method of trying to work around this is to resize the window to as small as possible (e.g. inch square) before opening a shader.

Pause would be nice. Especially if we had the option of updating the code without animating.
