Post effects are generated after the image has been rendered. Therefore you
won’t see the effect until the image is fully rendered.
The new “Save Preset” and “Load Preset” options let you save and load effect presets to and from the
“Presets/User” directory in the Content Browser. These presets can also be deleted from the Content
Browser.
Effect presets can also be saved to the Content Browser per drag & drop. Inversely, you can also drag
effect presets from the “Presets/User” directory into the render settings dialog window.
Note:
Links to elements in the scene will be lost (e.g. a Sketch and Toon effect that
is linked to a Sketch material).
Animating post effects
Almost all parameters in the post effects can be animated. Recording parameters here works in the
same way as recording parameters in the Attribute manager. For details, see Chapter 19, ‘Attribute
Manager’.
Object Glow
Glow effects are post processed effects: They are applied only after the
picture is fully rendered; thus you cannot see glow effects in reections or
through transparent objects.
Glow effects will be rendered if they are used in your scene.
Lens Effects
Lens effects will be rendered if they are used in your scene.
Remote
Use Remote if you want the picture or animation to be passed to another application automatically.
For example, you can redirect animation frames to a video editing program for post-editing. If you
are using Windows, you can use a batch le with command parameters. If you are using a Macintosh,
use AppleScript. Click the three dots button to open a system dialog. Use this dialog to select the
program to which the picture or animation should be passed.
