It is a regular type scene, like others I’ve printed all this week. They usually take several hours and I can’t use the msc during that time. I looked up render in background and that suggested I ca n continue to work while rendering so I tried it but as soon as I opene d something else like mail it seemed the render stopped so I tried it again and again a grey screen appeared in viewport and in the recent renders palette. I waited and watched but nothing showed. Now I’d like to stop all background render but it seems ms every abortive render is sent there. I may force close poser tomorrow because that fixed wrong behavior in another app, but I’m open yoTo advice,,is there some way to know if a scene is rendering in the background even if no physical appearance to my eyes?
