Inherit Visibility Causes objects on the selected layer to inherit the visibility of their parents (as determined by the parent's Visibility track in Track View). When a group parent is assigned a visibility track, Inherit Visibility is automatically turned on for all children in the group. Transparent materials and hidden objects have no effect on this function. Visible to Camera When on, the object is visible to cameras in the scene. When off, cameras do not view this object. Visible to Reflection/Refraction When on, the object is used in calculating reflections and refractions. When off, the object does not appear in reflections or refractions. Receive Shadows When on, objects on the selected layer can receive shadows. Cast Shadows When on, objects on the selected layer can cast shadows. Apply Atmospherics When on, atmospheric effects are applied to the object. When off atmospheric effects do not change the rendered appearance of this object. Render Occluded Objects Allows special effects to affect objects in the scene that are occluded by this object. The special effects, typically applied by plug-ins on page 8092 such as Glow on page 6599, use G-Buffer on page 7991 layers to access occluded objects. Turning on this control makes the object transparent for the purposes of special effects. This makes no difference when you render to most image files. When you render to either the RLA on page 7364 or RPF on page 7366 file format, however, occluded objects appear with the effect applied on their designated G-buffer layer. Motion Blur group Controls motion blur for objects on the selected layer. Multiplier Affects the length of the motion blur streak. Enabled When on, enables motion blur for this object. When off, motion blur is disabled regardless of the other blur settings. Default=on. None Turns off the state of motion blur for objects on the selected layer. Object Object motion blur on page 8063 provides a time-slice blur effect for objects on the selected layer. Image Image motion blur on page 8010 blurs the image of each object on the selected layer, based on the velocity of each pixel. 7456 | Chapter 23 Managing Scenes and Projects
