Inactive tabs are not unmounted #133

Closed gperdomor closed 7 years ago

Hi...

I notice that inactive tabs are still mounted, exist any way to prevent that?...

You would have to write the unmounting logic yourself if you want this behavior.

@ide can you explain? please leave the issue open, so other devs can help and give ideas

The issue is closed because this component makes an explicit choice not to do this. You can unmount your inactive scene contents however you want -- this component doesn't stop you from doing this, but it also doesn't come with a way to do so.
