Can Grasshopper render block instances?

I wonder if they can they be rendered with all their material properties, like when baked. (I am too lazy to bake all the time.)

Not sure but maybe this helps:

There are ways to display in a rendered mode, but not a raytraced mode.

The least amount of effort would be to use Content Cache to push and track the objects in Rhino for full rendering: Content Cache Updated Guide

Thank you, the Content Cache component makes Grasshopper so much more powerful! I appreciate the detailed documentation.

With Content Cache it does render in raytraced mode, and I don’t complain!
