Makes Integrated Graphics Chug

[Roingulus]

My integrated graphics sit around 3% usage without the program running and jumps to around 60% average with it on. Makes my whole pc feel laggier, not sure what's causing this. help pls

Desktoptale is probably using your integrated graphics for rendering instead of your dedicated GPU. You can use Windows' own graphics settings to make sure Desktoptale runs on the dedicated GPU instead, but that will lead to increased power usage. The reason it seems to be so challenging for your iGPU to run is probably just that it's always rendering an entire transparent window over the entire screen, regardless of how many characters there are.
