Smiley face rotation is sweet but problematic. This icon is a main indication of Interactive Rendering activity in top left corner of rendering window.

if you stop IR, the icon is designed to return to it's normal (horizontal) rotation, and it takes few frustrating seconds. 
This is problematic if I am not sure whether IR stop has been registered, especialy if shortcut is assigned to IR start/stop and the scene is heavy.

To check if IR is On or Off, you have to WAIT until Smiley Face gets to horizontal position.
If it keeps turning, then it is still active. If it stops turning, then IR is inactive.

My wish, option to replace rotating smilley face with a normal icon (on-off), say Orange/Black or Red/Green for respective states.
Or at least, make it reset quickly, please.


:) (:

Regards!

hi, the VFB start/stop rendering button on/off state should react immediately. Is it not working for you?
