Hello everybody; I'm working on a scene and I thought:
it would be nice to have HDRI lighting as a corona light with some of the options available;
so I can choose which objects to exclude or add; for example it is convenient to exclude external areas and not have overexposure

it's an idea..maybe it's already possible and I don't know..

Hello Matteo,

it has been already reported some time ago and we have it logged.
Could you please also provide some use cases except of having an "overexposed" image?

Hi;
in my workflow (interior scene)
1- I save the image in .cxr format
2- apply lightmix + postprocess set for interior (hdri, sun, sky...etc.) and save
3- I apply lightmix + postprocess set for outdoors (with low exposure)
4- postproduction in photoshop and I combine the two images

if it were possible to exclude the lighting, for example hdri, from the nature outside the windows, from 4 steps we pass to 1.
This is for my way of working of course :))
In general, the option of exclusion or inclusion in the corona lights is perfect and very flexible; especially for backlit images

thanks, Matteo
