I was experimenting with radiosity in MegaPOV, and I noticed something
strange. If I have the render view window minimized, the render cycles
whenever it prepares to update the percent of rendering done on the window.
For example, I start the render, the image starts to display, and I then
minimize the image window. When the % rendered goes from 1% to 2% (for
example), the program hangs, and cycles there, updating the minimized title
bar alternately with "POV 1%" and "POV 2%". If I restore the window, the
render continues.
Note that this does not happen on the final passes - only in the preliminary
passes. The final pass works fine, even if the image window is minimized.
Also note that this doesn't happen in POV 3.1g.
Render done on a Win95 platform - this may not apply anywhere else, of
course.
