Render Progress
Currently when you render you just know it's happening, but no idea how long it will take. Having some indication of time, even if a rough estimate, would allow me to plan. I could make a decision about reducing settings to get a faster render or taking a break and doing other things and know when to check back.
Attached an example of the render estimate in Photoshop.

73 votesHello all! Project Felix 0.2.0 is available today with a slew of updates and enhancements (you can see the full list here: https://helpx.adobe.com/beta/project-felix/using/whats-new.html)
The Render Mode now includes a true progress bar and a time elapsed counter. A time estimate counter will come in the future but this should give you a much better sense of time to completion and status.

Queue Multiple Renders
It would be great to have a way to queue up more than one render if you need more than one angle of a product (I do, often). This way you can set a computer to do all the renderings you need and not having to touch it until its done working.
49 votesHappy Monday, October 15th, everyone! Today we released an update to Dimension CC – the 2.0 release! In this version you can now use your saved camera bookmarks during render time to queue up as many renders as you’d like and run them all together.
You can see more about the release here:

Camera Depth of Field
support depth of field in the camera
21 votesHello! Project Felix was just renamed and released as Adobe Dimension CC! Really excited to say we did release the Depth of Field effect for adding blur and focus with the camera. A few notes though!
We know it’s really powerful so we wanted to get it out there, but there’s some things missing that we’ll be working on for an update.
1. There is no Depth of Field in the canvas. Please be sure to turn on the Render Preview window in design mode to see the effects.
2. The settings can be very sensitive at large and small scale scenes. We’ll improve this as we add units and better scale handling.
Hope you enjoy and please post follow up feature enhancement requests as new ideas so we can track them!

Estimate Render Complete Time
estimate rendering time. 5-30 mins is still better than nothing.
15 votesHappy Monday, October 15th, everyone! Today we released an update to Dimension CC – the 2.0 release! This release includes several updates to rendering, including faster times, render queue, and (yaaay) a render time estimate!

Depth layer
A layer in the finished PSD with a depth-map (white closest, black furthest away, shades of grey in between, I'll post an example later if unclear) would be very helpful for post-work. It would make "DOF-like" effects possible to add later in Photoshop using Lens Blur or other filters. Rendering DOF is quite resource-intensive, and you only get one shot to get it right (sort of like when you actually take a photograph in real life), if you have the depth-information available to you later you could "fake it", often to a satisfactory result, and also tweak it to your…
9 votesThe Depth information layer was added to the PSD export for Dimension 1.0.0 – Released October 18th, 2017.

Change Render Output Size
Cool program, but larger output files would be more useful. I would use these for compositing work in photoshop but at the current output size, it's kind of pointless

Render Objects Below the Ground Plane
I need to render objects that intersect the ground plane. I have an object that would be partially underground and when I composite it with an aligned background image there is no way to render anything that is below the ground plane
3 votesYou can disable the ground plane in the environment properties. This will render it without shadows/reflections as if there was no ground. Please let me know if that fits your needs, or if not, then why?

Beter de-noising
Better denoising
2 votesDimension 2.3 is now available (July 16th) and has cut render times significantly through the use of a new technology: Denoising powered by Adobe Sensei machine learning. Now, we can render significantly less time and still provide the same high quality end result. You can find the denoising option in the application preferences.

Add a render denoise filter
Blender's denoising filter is a massive render speedup function. It works by taking a render with a low sample count, apply a denoise filter and output a final image that seems to have at least twice the sample count. Have a look at it here: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/render/cycles/settings/scene/render_layers/denoising.html
Adding a similar function to Dimension would help with render times, which is the main issue with this application.

Save After Render
Can't change the name of the file to export once the render is completed. it seems the image must be re-rendered to save it with a new name.
2 votesHello all! Project Felix 0.2.0 is available today with a slew of updates and enhancements (you can see the full list here: https://helpx.adobe.com/beta/project-felix/using/whats-new.html)
In the new version we’ve updated the render save flow so that Save As is always available. You can save during or after the completed render and auto-save on completion is now an option instead of the default.

Save Partial In-Progress Renders
Would like to be able interrupt and save a render at it's current state, or have menu options easily available to do so.
1 voteYou can do this today. Please click on the “Snapshot” icon which is a camera icon in the render progress bar area to save the current progress.
