[Closed] has render been cancelled
Hi. Is there a way to check whether a render process has been cancelled? In my script I start a couple of renderings via “max quick render” in a for-loop and would like to escape the loop as soon as a rendering has been cancelled. I know theres a wascancelled option with the render() command, but I am using “max quick render”.
nobody? Maybe some hack or so? I really need a solution. Sorry for bumping the thread…
There is no way to do it through “max quick render”, the only hack I could think of is after render check for the output file if it doesn’t exist (or file date/time is greater than a specific threshold) exit, but that would only work if you aren’t saving over a file.
Why aren’t you using render()? What is the benefit of max quick render over render (beyond the render progress dialog)?

oh that could actually work. If the file didn’t exist before it is easy, if the render is over writing comparing the date of the file before and the new one might do the trick. I will try, thanks
I find the render progress dialog is a very strong reason to use max quick render. And setting up render() to match every feature of the rendersettings dialog is quite tedious too.
