Perhaps this can already be done but if nnot, would other people find this useful.

While maxwell is renderinga away I often carry on working on the design in SW -- Have to do something while maxwell renders and there are somany cups of tea that i can drink :D . While SW works while maxwell is rendering, it sometimes locks up and slows down a great deal. Perhaps there could be option to get Maxwell to render as a 'low' priority application.

What do people think?

Hi Jonathan,

This is already implemented. Write -p:low as parameter in the Command Line options (in Render Tab->additional settings). It sets the priority of maxwell process as "below normal".

Regards,

Juan
