It would be good to include a refresh or reload button so that I can simply update the settings without having to restart maxwell render itself so that the settings are empty again.
Hi, the settings are saved in the mxs file, not in the network manager/mxcl network 'add job' dialogue.
You have to load another mxs then reload the one you want to render, otherwise the file paths, resolution and camera choice, will remain as before.

Well, afaik the dialog does keep the settings the same, because I add an mxs file as a job, I finish rendering it, I remove the job from the list, then go back to my 3d program, change settings, write a new mxs with the same name, then go back to maxwell render, chose add job, select the .mxs and the settings remain the same as they were with the old file, not as they are in the new file... don't tell me this can't be fixed with a simple button that re-reads the settings in the actual file.
I don't always have another .mxs file to write and I don't feel like restarting maxwell render everytime I change something in the mxs file, this seems like something that can be fixed real easy and would fix something that is quite annoying.
