Kill animation when Xion is covered

I noticed that any animation running on a Xion skin is still running in the background even when the player is covered by a window or application.

Would be great if it could suspend animations till the player is visible again. :D

I know what ya mean, however, Cliff uses rectangles for some things so it could be part of the rectangle is still shown by another window therefore still updates itself, altho afaik there is no optimisation to hide/stop it completely if a window is covering completely, would make sense, not sure how much work though

I wouldnt know either...I was thinking it would be how dreamscenes is supposed to know when it is covered but I dont use Vista so I have no idea if it even works there. :lol:
