Snapshot layers

The Iray engine is available for image, video, VR object and VR panorama snapshots. In the corresponding Snapshot editor, select Iray as the render engine.

When the snapshot will be saved in a format that supports layers (PSD or PSB), Iray can split the image into different layers.

Render direct and indirect contribution separately: renders separate layers for the direct illumination (light sources) and indirect illumination (global illumination).

Available layers:

  • Diffuse layer

  • Specular layer

  • Glossy layer

  • Emission layer

  • Alpha layer

  • Depth layer

  • Normal layer

The calculation of layers does not include transmission.
