Example: VRayScene Workflow
In the Scene Manager, press the Import Objects button and navigate to a vrscene.
This imports the VRayScene into the scene. Set Frame Start and Frame Count as required and click the Cache Selected button with the required vrscene selected.
Ensure Use Preview Faces is checked and set the preview faces to an amount lower than the original geometry's face count. This only affects the viewport preview.
Pressing the Update Preview button updates the viewport.
