 +The viewport is able to render a scene on event feedback if visual component change or by a fixed framerate interval.
 +If UseFixedFrameRate is set to true, the rendering pipeline tries to render the scene with the configured FixedFrameRate value.
 +By default this value is set to 60.

 +Notice: At design-time fixed framerate rendering is disabled due to limitations in IDE.
