Not sure if this is already possible, but I think it would be a nice idea to be able to pause network renders, which would allow addition/deletion of renders in the queue and also allow you to use other programs faster while the network is not being utilised. As far as i'm aware, the only option to hand at the moment is stopping the network queue; feel free to quote me wrong though  :)

Thanks.

The network queue program does not handle any of the rendering process. The machine(s) on the network that are set up as a slave(s) are going to be the machines that will do the rendering once the job has been submitted via the queue. If you have your computer set up as a slave machine you can stop the service via the "Configuration" program that was included in the installer for network rendering.

You can pause KeyShot on the local machine to free up the resources, via the hotkey SHIFT-P.
