Request: a button called "Extend" beside the "Estimated remaining"
It should extend the rendering time by a giving number.

Cheers

That would be: "Evaluate stop condition changes during rendering", so not only time limit but noise or pass limit as well. That is what I always wanted to see for Corona and requested this 2.5 years ago. But I was told it's not possible atm.

Good Luck



Never underestimate the power of a well placed level one spell.

(in case it helps, can be done by letting the render finish to the current target, then using Resume Render - it will then render til it reaches the new noise limit, or will render for the additional time specified in the time limit, or the additional passes specified in the pass limit)

Yep. I also thought about mentioning this. But it's no replacement for the above at all (think of farm jobs or unattended renders) and I assumed ronaldjung is aware of that feature.


Good Luck

Thanks TomG and Frood!
Yes I´m aware of this and use it frequently.

I was thinking in a more practical and fast way of doing that.
