How to make Unity Editor run in the background?

Hi there!

I have some complex operations that I do in the background in the Editor. But it won’t work unless Unity window is focused.

Is there a way to have it run in the background?

Thanks!

Guess this answer comes a little late but: navigate to Edit → Project Settings → Player and enable “Run In Background”. Not sure if that only affects the Build though
