Blender 2.8: “Unable to open a display” by the rendering on the background (CYCLES)

That would be bpy.data.scenes['Scene'].render.engine . Note that the value can differ for different scenes in the same Blender file.

Sorry, I’m less of beginner level of a programmer. How do I list the scenes? I only get:

import bpy
bpy.data.scenes[‘Scene’].render.engine
‘CYCLES’

>>> for scene in bpy.data.scenes: print(scene, scene.render.engine)
<bpy_struct, Scene("Scene")> CYCLES
