How to make it right?

Hello,

I’m doing a composite here. The DNA is inside the solid but it does not appear like that in the viewer and therefore also in a rendering result. Can you tell me what should I change in the composition in order to have it right?

Try switching the input order of the "Render Layer’ nodes into the ‘Alpha Over’.

Or change the ‘Alpha Over’ node into a different type.

Am totally guessing on this btw.

Thanks — These nodes configurations remind me about math equations. I’m not sure how the alpha channel works in here tho.

Wrong term. You’re compositing and making a composite.

A composition is related but very different, and you should’ve been composing way before rendering

LoL - Thanks - just edited it. Although, as you also mentioned - I can say that I’m doing a composition with this composite.

I found it - I was missing the Z combine node.

I have another problem here. Why I can’t display a glare on the particles? I was trying a few ways to do that already.

A bit of help will be appreciated.
