Better Menus!!

Render Viewport Menu:

Maximum Subdivision Level: Set the highest subdivision level directly from the panel for detailed mesh smoothing.

Disable Overlays: Temporarily turn off viewport overlays for a clearer view while rendering, affecting only the render output, not the viewport display.

Parent Disable Transparency: Deactivate transparency effects in the final render without changing viewport visibility.

MP4 with Audio: Choose this setting to render your project as an MP4 file, including audio tracks.

PNG with Alpha: Select this option for renders that require transparency, outputting as a PNG file with alpha channel.

Single JPG: Opt for a single-frame JPEG render, ideal for still images.

Single PNG: Choose to render a single-frame PNG, useful for still images with retained quality.

Name: Specify the name of your render, customizing how the output file is identified.

Show Render: Displays the render result in a separate OpenCV window upon completion.

Frame Start: Set the beginning frame of your render sequence.

Frame End: Specify the ending frame for your render.

Output Path: Designate where your rendered files are saved, defaulting to a “FAST Render” folder for easy access.

Prepare Render: (Test Feature) Initiates a render preparation mode, disabling and then re-enabling objects sequentially to optimize the rendering process.

OK: Begins rendering your scene with ‘Viewport Render’ or ‘Viewport Render Animation’. As EVEE is a real-time rendering engine, this is practically the same as EVEE render.
