Explain the Feature/Enhancement
I would like the ability to check a box to make SDF Effects static/prerendered, so that they are not calculated on every frame. A button could be added to refresh the effects if necessary.
What makes this feature/enhancement useful for StreamFX and its users?
SDF Effects makes adding shadows to sources very easy and is a lot more flexible than making an image with the shadows, but is also very GPU intensive. Since many sources do not change shape or alpha channels, simply rendering the SDF effect once for those sources and caching the result would be enough rather than rendering every frame, drastically cutting GPU usage.
Checklist
Any additional Information we need to know?
