v6.1 invisible reference objects for render instance still render in IR

(1/3) > >>

hi,

I have a habitude to organize all my decorative objects and furnitures in an invisible null called 'symbols'. Then I make render instances and place them in the scene.

However when the 'render instance' option is enabled for the instance, the original reference object is also rendered in IR (not final render), even when parent is set to invisible for rendering.

I am including a quick test scene to see if you can reproduce the error:
1) start IR as is on startup file, it renders only the instance as expected since the render instance is disabled.
2) enable the render instance in the object manager
3) restart IR and both the render instance and reference object are also rendering now, while this is not expected behaviour since the parent is set to invisible.

We have had this problem on R18 and R19 since v5,v6 and 6.1, and tested with same results in R23 v7 too
my workaround  is to lower my symbols null to height -5000, but it needs to restart the IR to see it dissapear. With parsing times often around 6 minutes, it's quite a pain to see p.e. a reference tree in the middle of the livingroom...

cheers, koen

Hello,

thank you very much for a very precise summary (makes work million times easier!). I confirm this issue have passed this to the developers.

I also have the same habitude...

this is unfortunately still an issue in R19+R23 V7 HF1

Rendering in IR still also renders the original hiddens symbols (objects that are instanced as render instance)

Only when set to 'render instance' is enabled.  Behaviour is as expected (not rendering symbol) when mode is set to regular 'instance'

Hi there, I have tried to recreate this but have been unsuccessful. Either I'm doing something wrong or it is working with the latest V8 daily build. Could you please test this build when you have time and let me know the outcome? https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KcDSZVZnG9nyCnFCC6kmVIlqySg3GRtc
