Rendering Progress Dialog

Shows the status of a rendering operation.

When you click Render, a rendering progress dialog shows the parameters being used, and a progress bar. The rendering dialog has a Pause button to the left of the Cancel button. When you click Pause, the rendering pauses, and the button's label changes to Resume. Click Resume to continue with the rendering.

As of 3ds Max 2016, you can Pause and Resume mental ray renderings.
