<summary>Normally this call is unneeded if your game has a constantly running frame loop that calls the ⤶
D3D Present API, or OGL SwapBuffers API every frame.⤶
⤶
However, if you have a game that only refreshes the screen on an event driven basis then that can break ⤶
the overlay, as it uses your Present/SwapBuffers calls to drive it's internal frame loop and it may also⤶
need to Present() to the screen any time an even needing a notification happens or when the overlay is⤶
brought up over the game by a user. You can use this API to ask the overlay if it currently need a present⤶
in that case, and then you can check for this periodically (roughly 33hz is desirable) and make sure you⤶
refresh the screen with Present or SwapBuffers to allow the overlay to do it's work.</summary>⤶
