[Quilts] Rendering quilts by running background instances of Blender #90

Open regcs opened 2 years ago

regcs commented 2 years ago

Instead of rendering the views in one thread in the current instance of Blender, it may be faster to start several background processes to render each view and then assemble the views inn the current instance.

Also this would prevent that the render window steals the window priority which is quite annoying and results in a system that cant really be used other than rendering ;)

@enslaved2die Totally right. However, as a workaround you can change Blender's behavior to "Keep User Interface". That way, no render window opens at all but instead you have to switch to a Image Editor (e.g., the "Rendering" tab in Blender) to view the render result or progress.

This might also be a solution to the problem we have with a slow-down during animation rendering (#8).
