Closed joshjaysalazar closed 8 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. At the moment, the video export window just shows a progress bar, and you have to wait until it's done before you can do anything.

Describe the solution you'd like The window should definitely feature a cancel button, as well as an estimate of time remaining if at all possible. Also, when the export has finished, there should be an okay button, because it's not clear that you need to close the window when it's done.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

It turns out canceling rendering in the middle of the process is harder than it would appear, due to lack of direct access to the renderer. This is a solvable problem, but should be moved to a separate issue, as it will be significantly more work to solve (and may even involve either changing the library used for video rendering or, in the worst case, writing a custom video rendering routine).
