Unable to dismiss V-Ray frame buffer window

Extending SketchUp V-Ray for SketchUp
1

Hi, I have SU Pro 2021 with Vray 15.10.04, running on a MacBook Pro (2018) with macOS Big Sur 11.4

My problem is that I cannot dismiss the Vray Frame Buffer window. It is particularly annoying when I need to cancel a render. After stopping the render, I cannot close the window using the normal red window control (no response). If I minimise it, the whole SU window minimises with it, and if I restore it (from the Window menu of SU) then the frame buffer comes back with SU. If I try to move the window to the side it snaps back. After some considerable time, I will be able to close it with the Red window close button, but it takes ages before I can access the Sketchup window again.

It has persisted after a SU restart and a full system restart.

Anyone else having similar issues??

I don’t have that issue although I’m on Windows.

I’ve edited the topic title slightly to reflect your question better.

Did you ever find a solution to this please? (Old post) I just downloaded a trial version of V-Ray to see if I like it, but I am having the same problem. Sadly Twilight Render that I loved, is no longer compatible with the M1 -M3 chip with Apple computers. If this is going to be a problem though, that’s a total deal breaker. I can’t keep closing SketchUp because the buffer window won’t close! That’s crazy. Thank you.

Sometimes saving the render allows you to close the window.

Thank you. That does help, but just want to chime in that I am still having this issue as well. Also Mac here.

Save the render, it’s an extra step and a PITA, but then (on a Mac) you can exit / close the window.
