3D node animation playback should not be interrupted even when the mouse leaves the node #7827
Description
While implementing the HY-Motion plugin, https://github.com/jtydhr88/ComfyUI-HY-Motion1 I noticed that when playing an animation, the playback stops when the mouse leaves the node.
This is the expected behavior—the original design consideration was to save resources. However, after actual testing, this behavior significantly impacts user experience because users cannot move their mouse away from the node while watching the animation playback.
A possible solution would be to add an option in Settings → 3D that, when enabled, prevents the rendering from being interrupted.
