Hit accidentally pressed spacebar while rendering. Can't switch back to the Render Queue panel.

Question

I'm currently rendering a shot. Tons of FXs so it is taking a while. I accidentally pressed the spacebar and AE switched from the Render Queue panel to a Comp Timeline. EA is still rendering but I can't see the progress bar or the time remaining. How can I switch back to the Render Queue panel? I tried hitting the spacebar but it does nothing. Help, please. I'm using After Effects v18.4.1 because of some compatibility issues.

As with most Adobe applications, any panel in After Effects is listed on the Window menu, so you will never permanently lose any panel. If you can’t see a panel tab to click it, or it’s just lost in a sea of other panels, all you have to do is click the Window menu, choose the name of the panel, and it will come forward.

So choose Window > Render Queue. It’s in the second group of commands, further down the menu.
