Control (UI) Default Value Function
type color Specifies the type of output.
• color - mostly used to render out rgb beauty files, but also can
be used for rendering out z, P(point), N(normals), Ci(final
shader color) passes.
• shadow - renders out PRMan z and deepshad(deep shadow)
files.
• raw - allows you to directly specify the values for a Display
line. Since the output could be anything, Katana doesn't do
any colorspace conversion on this output, and can't support
tiling.
• ptc - prman pointcloud file. The shader is responsible for
generating the pointcloud data, but this output will setup a
global 'renderOutputs.local.passname' attribute at /root to
specify where the pointcloud should go, and also handles
stitching of pointcloud files after a tile render.
• script - run a script on another RenderOutputDefine, like
txmake.
• prescript - run a script before the render is started.
• none - clears the output. If the output was previously setup
by a different RenderOutputDefine node, this removes the
entry.
includedByDefault Yes When enabled, this Render Definition is sent to the Render
node.
