 ==== Requesting FrameRate (FPS) ====
-Currently it is not possible to retrieve an actual framerate, but the TGorillaViewport provides an estimated framerate value.
+If UseFixedFrameRate is set to true, the FPS property returns the current frames per second.
+If UseFixedFrameRate is set to false, the TGorillaViewport provides an estimated framerate value.
 Simply setup a timer and request those value every 100 milliseconds.

 Animation-Framerate (TAnimation): Because skin- and skeleton animation extends basic Firemonkey TAnimation. Therefore animations are limited to 30 FPS for rendering.
 ==== UseFixedFrameRate ====
+The viewport is able to render a scene on event feedback (when visual components 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.

 Even in OnRender event you are in Gorilla3D rendering context. This means the framework has bound a framebuffer and the necessary render target textures.
-This is very important to know.

-It is recommended to only use opaque rendering, by setting elements to "Opaque := true;". If the opaque property is false, you will render to translucent albedo channel.

 __//CAUTION://__ This translucent render target is NOT a 1:1 represented color value. Instead it is weighted color value used later for compositing.
