The Back To Beauty render element is a single Render Element that expands as all beauty elements for the actual rendering. When used

...

with V-Ray Frame Buffer (VFB), this render element creates a folder

...

in Composite

...

 named BackToBeauty

...

 containing all elements with the appropriate blend modes. When used with V-Ray Frame Buffer (VFB), it only generates the layers without compositing them.

When VRayCaustics is used with VRayBackToBeauty and the render engine is set to V-Ray GPU, VRayCaustics is not added to the render.
