But, on the flip side, a big advantage to the OR viewport is that you can pan and zoom the rendering image in the OR viewport while it is rendering (just zooms and pans the image, doesn't change any render settings. The biggest downside compared to Iray is that you make any changes to the scene/figure in the DS viewport, then they are shown in the OR viewport.
The attached image shows on of the Octane Render Main panel on the left, the DS viewport in the center, and the Octane render viewport on the right. The screen can get a little cramped when you have a single display (I use a laptop), but like iray, you get almost immediate feedback in the Octane Render (OR) viewport. Octanes viewport is nothing like what we have (don't have) with Reality/Lux or Luxus/Lux, it is an additional window that you open while working in DS, and you see the changes typically as fast as you do with Iray. It updates faster, has click focus, and does not jam your machine when you're adjusting morphs. Octane has a very powerfull preview window, I always keep it open.
So there's no easily accessible Octane preview window or something? I spent years with luxrender and the reality plugin, but not having to open a new window everytime I want to check something was a godsend and I can't imagine going back to not having the preview option. While Octane is a great renderer, one of the things that keeps me with Iray if the Iray preview built into DS.
