Thanks for your input, was not aware of that addon. From a
personal perspective, I tend to think of bottom left keys + Z
(e.g. 'Ctrl Z' and 'Shift + Ctrl Z') are connected with Undo /
Redo functionality.<br>

<pre wrap="">shift Z is afaik free, and the amaranth addon from venomgfx indeed sets
this precise hotkey for toggling rendered.
Works a treat!

<pre wrap="">Hi Greg,
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'.
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.
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.

<pre wrap="">Alt+ZZ would be a bad idea - switching to textured mode even
momentarily will cause a bit delay in scenes with lots of textures
to load. Is Shift+Z taken by anything? I'd be glad to have a
hotkey.
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.

Hi Brecht,
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?
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.
Thank you kindly for your time and feedback,
David
