Or, what would also do the trick nicely is a hot-key to render the current
scene in LightWave. That way you could use Export to update an existing
scene (or start a new one if nothing is there) and hit the hotkey to see it
rendered. Ofcourse on a 3rd party graphics board, it would be nicer still
to have the rendered output pop up in a full color window on top of your
Modeler screen. Hopefully, the current "resolution-enhanced" workbench
screen is also a viable choice for LW and Modeler to run on.
