Ability to Rate Results from Light Gen

Can we add the ability to mark off, label, star, delete, etc. certain Light Gen thumbnails? If I run 30 of them for example, most will be unusable and I would only want to render a few of them in full size. The problem is when I go back to select ...

Savable workspaces

It would be nice if there was a possibility to save workspaces (like in Adobe Photoshop, etc.). For example, I'd like to save the render window in a specific size on my second monitor. And it would be nice to be able to have the main V-Ray window ...

save .mat when export as VrayProxy

I think that adding this option could improve this process, sometimes I export objects and 3ds crash and I couldnt save changes and I need to redo the operation again, saving the .mat could save me time

Vantage License without V-Ray License not only for 3DSMax but also for SKP
