I looked through the render setting and did a google search but failed to find anything regarding to render region in daz3d.
Can anyone point me where this feature is hidden? Thanks in advance!

    Like a spot render? Up on the toolbar should be a camera icon with a pointer attached, that's the tool you want (alt+shift+c is the default shortcut on pc). If your default render engine is set to Iray, it will spot render in Iray.

    Unless you mean something like Window > Panes > Aux Viewport and set the draw style to Iray as a preview without using the main viewport?

    Just a precision, in order to render a region of the viewport in DaZ, you can indeed use the Spot Render (Alt+Shift+C) as explained by Pixolygon.

    But it will only Iray Preview a portion of the viewport : in the viewport. 

    If you aim is to render a portion of the viewport to a saved file, usually because you fixed a portion of your scene after a render and want to because you fixed something in your scene and just need to render a small part of the viewport in order to layer it in photoshop and fix a mistake, you need to select the Spot Render, go in the Tools Settings Tab, and there you'll have the option to :

    1/ render in the Viewport (preview)

    2/ render in a New Window (to a file).

    Thank you so much, hansolocambo. For the users who find this post in the future, remember, BEFORE you use the spot render tool to drag a region, FIRST, go to the tool settings and choose "render to a new window", then drag that region. It will render the region in the new window.

    If you start the render then change the setting, the setting will not be respected.
