  Request: "Stop all" command for halting queues (Message 1 to 2 of 2)

Currently, pressing the "stop" button only causes the top scene in the queue to
cease rendering, not the entire queue. It can be particularly frustrating to
manually stop each image in a queue if each of the scenes suffer from long
parsing times and you have to wait a few seconds between each time to hit the
"stop" button. A "stop queue" function would make it easier to stop a long
sequence of images.

Thanks.

I would like to see something like this also, along with the ability to import
or export queues.

As for the above issue about manually stopping each scene, it can be partially
avoided by hitting pause, emptying the queue, then clicking stop.
