    You can do that in the Tool Settings pane (Window > Panes > Tool Settings). With the spot render tool active, change the setting from Viewport to New Window. Then use spot render and it should bring up the rendered section in a new window, and when it's done you can save it as you normally save any render. :)

    Spot renders in the viewport can be saved by making a screen grab image and pasting that into an image editor to save the file. One will of course have the entire screen view so some cropping would be necessary.

    I thinked about that, but the viewport is not in the QHD resolution and I wanted to merge the spotrender as a .png into the other scene.

    Oh I know that option haha, I guess you understad/read my problem not good enough :P

    I had the standard Viewport option, because I forgot to change it (you ahve to change it ALWAYS, every time!) and I made a 1:40H render and then it was in the viewport, I looked for an option to safe it... If it was in a new window, then well, then it would be like a normal render :)

    I also checked the %appdata% tmp folder, but there was no render ;( also weird that the software didnt offered me to save the last render, I did try save last draw, but that used only the ugly viewport view and not the rendered preview.
