About render view rendering

If you want to render a single frame (or a single frame of an animation), render it in Render View. Advantages include the following:

• easy to use
• Maya UI
• you can see the process as it occurs
• you can interrupt the process at any time
  Note: Large scenes or image files may run out of memory. In this case, use batch rendering to reduce memory usage.

To render in Render View, see:

• Test render a low-res still or frame
