Esc In Rendering On Mac

Hi,

 

First, I want to praise the new renderengine in Evolve 2015...absolutely fantastic results!

 

Now for my question: When rendering in evolve in 'Performence' or 'Full' mode it is very hard to stop the process with the esc key, when I find the render perfect or if I just want to abort. I keep hidding the key, but the render will not stop...until at last after some time.

 

Is there a more efficient way to stop the renderprocess...?

    Hi Lunau,

     

    Thank you for the comments.

     

    We have found that hitting the ESC key once does not always translate to a successful termination of your render. Please PRESS and HOLD the ESC key until you notice the rendering terminated message.

     

    Let me know if you have questions.

    There is some post-processing that has to be done internally when the rendering is terminated, so it may take some time for it to complete.
