The Multi Matte ID Render Element isolates objects with specific Multi Matte IDs for compositing purposes.

Overview

The Multi Matte ID Render Element provides a mask for individual objects and/or materials, based on the Multi Matte IDs.

The Multi Matte ID Render Element contains no shading information at all, and only contains blocks of color that correspond to each Multi Matte ID. It uses the Multi Matte ID option available in the materials' properties.
