Render Options

Mirror Renders a mirrored version of the 3D Layer content.
Effect Mirror Renders a mirrored version of the 3D Layer content and can apply effects to it.
Effect Applies an Image Post Processing Effect to a part of the Hierarchy Tree.
Set 3D Mask Defines a 3D Mask inside the Hierarchy tree.
Use 3D Mask Applies a defined mask onto all children Nodes inside the Hierarchy tree.
Clip Plane This node adds a Plane to the 3D World that cuts off the rendering.
Mirror Filter This node can restrict which objects are rendered to a Mirror.
Cubemap Filter The Cubemap Filter can restrict which objects are rendered to a Cubemap.
ClipPlane Filter This node can restrict which objects are clipped by a Clip Plane.
Shadow Filter Filters Objects for the Shadow Map Rendering
Rank Filter The Rank Filter is used in Chroma Keying mode to render parts of the Hierarchy to the Background, Foreground or Garbage Matte.
3D Layer Reference Filter Filters objects for each rendering of a 3D Layer issued by 3D Layer References.
Render Cube Map Renders the whole 3D Layer content into a cubemap.
Stencil Set This node sets a stencil mask to the stencil buffer.
Stencil Test This node tests the stencil mask and renders only those areas where a specified stencil value is set.
Stencil Advanced This node provides advanced and customizable stencil mask and test functionalities.
Clear Stencil This node clears the whole stencil buffer.
Alpha Blending This node modifies the blending rules for superposed pixels.
Blending This node modifies the blending rules for superposed pixels with industry standard presets.
Alpha Testing This node tests if a pixel has to be drawn. This depends on the alpha value of this pixel.
Point Options This node modifies the appearance of point geometries.
Render Options This node provides different settings to modify the rendering of objects.
ZTesting This node modifies the depth information that is written by geometries into the depth buffer (Z-Buffer).
