Root cause

The export UI lives inside a Popover component (shadcn/ui). When the user clicks outside the popover, the onOpenChange handler fires with open: false, which triggers:

editor.project.cancelExport();
editor.project.clearExportState();

This cancels the export and clears the progress state entirely — the user has no way to recover it.

Suggested approaches

Option A — Move export state outside the popover (recommended)
Promote the export progress UI to a persistent element (e.g. a status bar at the bottom of the editor, or a toast/sonner notification) that survives popover dismissal. The popover becomes just the configuration UI; once export starts, the user sees progress in a fixed location.

Option B — Detach progress on export start
When the user clicks "Export", close the popover and show a persistent progress indicator elsewhere (e.g. a bar in the toolbar or a small overlay). The popover is only for configuration.

Option C — Warn before closing during active export
If isExporting is true, intercept the popover close and show a confirmation: "Export in progress. Closing will cancel it." This is the least disruptive but still allows accidental cancellation.

Accessibility note

Regardless of the approach, the progress should be announced to assistive technology. Currently the Progress component likely has no aria-valuenow or aria-label — adding role="progressbar" with aria-valuenow and aria-valuemax would make it accessible to screen readers.

Happy to open a PR for Option A if that direction is welcome.

Yes i will be happy to open a PR for option A, and i think it makes more sense because a user should be able to see the status even when the popover is closed
