Idle

hibernate() #

Put the window into hibernation. This kills the internal browser processes to save the most resources. The page state is lost (as if refreshed).

Examples #

Window.idle.hibernate(); // Hibernate the window

sleep() #

Put the window to sleep. This switches to a screenshot of the window instead of the actual window running. The page state is lost (as if refreshed).

Examples #

Window.idle.sleep(); // Put the window to sleep

freeze() #

Freeze the window. Halts most execution and background work. The page state is kept when woken (as if nothing happened). Unfreeze using wake().

Examples #

Window.idle.freeze(); // Freeze the window

wake() #

Wake up the window from hibernation or sleep.

Examples #

Window.idle.wake(); // Wake up the window
