By Any · 2019-01-09

Description

for the selected camera there is an option to enable MultiPass Camera Effect
$.mpassEnabled = off

but, with this inclusion, is used Deph of Field effect...

is there a command to automatically enable to Deph of Field (mental ray/iray) effect ???

$.mpassEffect = Depth_of_Field__mental_ray()

Thanks so much. The help does not describe this feature....

you can always use show $ to print object properties in listener
first I checked what $.mpassEffect returns and then what it returns after I manually change it to mr mode.
then just assign a new instance of dof mode as shown above

$Camera001.mpassEffect = Depth_of_Field__mental_ray()
