Ah, hi Jörn, the next project where we meet. :-) Do you know whether this setting can also have a negative effect? Did you try it locally with jEdit already? --- ** [feature-requests:#529] Activate automatic graphics switching on Mac.** **Status:** open **Group:** none **Created:** Thu Feb 16, 2017 10:57 AM UTC by Joern Huxhorn **Last Updated:** Thu Feb 16, 2017 03:58 PM UTC **Owner:** Björn Kautler jEdit 5.3.0 does not allow automatic graphics switching on Mac.

Hey there. :) Yes, I patched jEdit immediately. I can't give you any objective measurements but I can tell you that I feel no subjective difference whether the "integrated" or the "high-performance" gfx is used on the Mid-2012 MBP I'm currently using. No app I'm running right now demands "high-performance" (i.e. patched jEdit, Chrome, Firefox, Thunderbird, IDEA, Lilith, TV-Browser etc.) and the only difference is that the MBP is using less energy. Even VLC playing full-screen video isn't switching to high-performance. That other mode is primarily for games or pro software and macOS is supposed to switch to high-performance automatically as needed. Attaching an external monitor is also switching to "high-performance" mode but that usually isn't a problem because one is likely not running on battery in that scenario. This is the ticket for IDEA: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-118524 This is related Apple documentation: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/qa/qa1734/_index.html --- ** [feature-requests:#529] Activate automatic graphics switching on Mac.** **Status:** open **Group:** none **Created:** Thu Feb 16, 2017 10:57 AM UTC by Joern Huxhorn **Last Updated:** Fri Feb 17, 2017 05:41 PM UTC **Owner:** Björn Kautler jEdit 5.3.0 does not allow automatic graphics switching on Mac.
