Hello developers, will we ever get render pause button? This is very convenient when render border is enabled as it does not respect max samples value.

This is not a solution but workaround.

That's actually a very nice idea!

Hi Lino!

Are there any plans to include this in a future update? Seeing that we already have access to Octane's picker tools it would be great to have this function available in Blender's viewport for ease of use.

We´ll take a look into that as soon as some important updates to the addon version will be completed.

Awesome! This feature is really missing. After 6 years I'm transitioning from C4D+Octane to Blender+Octane and the missing pause button the Cycles has is bad.
