There is a "lock update" button for the Octane Viewport
Is it possible to have a "lock viewport" option as well? (like in 3dsmax Viewport)

While working, i want to switch to different views (i often work in perspective views)
and maximize views
while keeping rendering and updating a certain view (e.g. Octane Camera....)

if you use orthogonal view "u", it won't update the octane viewport, of course a viewport lock would do a bit more, but this is how I use it all the time, leave the camera view on and switch to other ortho viewports to navigate and change stuff

I tried this pressing U, but it seems to render an ortho view

1.) i work a lot in perspective views. very rarely in orthographic views.
2.) When maximizing an orthographic Viewport Octane Window gets black anyway. :-(

switch to the vieport that has the perspective view than back to ortho view, it will not update the ortho then just the camera/perspective view.. fiddle around with it.. it's not all ideal, but I make do with that
