<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Greg,<br>
<br>
I also considered the close key combination of 'Alt X' for
'Viewport Shading Rendered' (doesn't seem to be used?) but thought
people might find it easier to remember 'Alt Z' and 'Alt ZZ'.<br>
Switching to texture viewport is normally (understandably
depending on hardware) only slow for the first time, after that
(due to caching?) it is near instantaneous for me on a complex
scene.<br>
<br>
Like your idea of having samples information first (very useful
for small render viewport), I often zoom into an area and watch
samples carefully while waiting to see how many are required for
clean final render.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Alt+ZZ would be a bad idea - switching to textured

to have a hotkey.

<div>Moving the pause button is a good idea I think - and while
we're on the topic of moving things, I'd appreciate if the
Samples count in the top bar was moved all the way to the left
- it's common to use a smaller window to render with, and
memory consumption is not quite as important IMO as the render
progress. Currently if the window is too small and you want to
see how far it is, you cannot do so since resizing the window
will restart the render. Memory consumption doesn't change so
much during render and thus could move to the right and
resizing the window wouldn't be an issue to see those values.</div>

<div text="#000099" bgcolor="#ffffff"> Hi Brecht,<br>
<br>
Just been thinking about a possible keyboard shortcut
for 'Viewport Shading Rendered', not easy since most
logical key combinations are already allocated. I find
'Alt Z' a very useful toggle for rapidly switching
between 'Viewport Shading Solid' and 'Viewport Shading
Texture', how about 'Alt ZZ' (inspired by key
combination 'GG' Edge Loop slide) to quickly switch to
'Viewport Shading Rendered', 'Alt Z' returns to
previously selected mode of viewport shading solid or
texture?<br>
<br>
Also, to prevent toolbar horizontal scrolling on a
secondary smaller viewport window (useful for faster
viewport rendering), what are your thoughts on moving
the 'Pause all viewport preview renders' button (which
appears only while 'Viewport Shading Rendered' is
active) next to the viewport shading select button?
Being so closely related, it feels logical that they
might be found within close proximity to each other.<br>
<br>
Thank you kindly for your time and feedback,<br>
David <br>
