Where is the new Suspend when in background option?

I’m reading through the new release notes/version history for Dorico 6, which are very helpful. There is one note on p47 that states

“a new Suspend when in background option has been added to the Play page in Preferences. Activate this if you want Dorico to receive MIDI input only when it is the active foreground application.”

I love that idea since I accidentally do add unintended notes to scores if duration-before-pitch is enabled (which is not my default) and I’m improvising in Reason (which is my DAW). But for the life of me, I can’t find it anywhere. Not in the application preferences, nor in anything relating to Play, nor via the Jump Bar. Was this perhaps deferred to a later release? Thanks!

It is found under Dorico > Preferences… > Play > Recording tab:

Thank you. Duh! Not sure how I missed that! Thanks so much. Surprised it hadn’t come up when I entered Suspend in the search bar in Preferences, so this really helped.
