Button for Distributed Rendering in the V-Ray Frame Buffer

[3LP]

Hi,

It could be nice if we have a shortcut button for Distributed Rendering directly inside te V-Ray Frame Buffer.
Like a button to put DR on or off just beside the Region Render button. And why not, when we click-hold the button, we have access to the machine list.

Because several times, we just want a quick render (Or small render region) and forget that DR is enabled. So we have to wait it saves the files before cancelling the render (Painfull with large size files).

Thanks,

G

GEts my vote ...
Here I'm about to finish a little in-house tool to help with several tasks (and to avoid opening the Render Panel for little things). Between other things, I've set a DR button to enable /disable it, and with right-click on it, you get the machines list

I'm not a fan of redundant buttons. Maybe a dedicated collapsible area in the vfb could give a bunch of info and stats about the scene among which DR status. Then if you want to change it just press F10. Or make your own tool like NicoC.
That's exactly what maxscript is for after all.
