This page provides information on the Multi Matte Render Element, which creates red, green, and blue selection masks based on an object's Object ID or Material ID.
Overview
The Multi Мatte Render Element includes anti-aliasing.
To represent all the objects or materials in a scene with just the available red, green, and blue colors, several Multi Мatte Render Elements can be generated for a single rendering, each with different Material ID or Object ID settings.

Red/Green/Blue Id – When Mask Type is set to Separate Channels, these parameters set the ID used for the respective channel.
