Prevent render window stealing focus?

Corona Corona for 3ds Max Help Required
1

I’m batch rendering a lot of light maps in max/corona, for use in Unity. Each time a new render starts, the render window pops on top of everything, disrupting what I’m doing and basically making it impossible to do any work while rendering (for 2-3 hours). Is there a way to prevent this? I don’t know if it’s a windows, 3ds max or corona problem, but maybe someone here knows a solution regardless?

imho there is no way to do that even with maxscript, because I do batchrender almost everyday, so +1 for this
a feature like ‘hide vfb when rendering’ would be great.

It is there, in system wide settings

Thanks, found it. I had to minimize max to prevent it from popping up anyway, but now it’s quiet.

“system settings > vfb settings > type: none” haha great it is there since long time, thanks! :smiley:

I spoke too soon. It seems the rendered images doesn’t get saved when turning off the VFB…

I’m not with 3ds max now but juat to make sure, Have you turned on the renderoutput in rendersetup>common ?
