Render layer overrides

General Forums Blender Development Discussion

hi!

Is it possible to override properties on different render layers?

for example, change the material or the position of an object only on a particular render layer.

I understood that such things would have been possible in 2.8.

Thanks!

This will be done through dynamic override , but they aren’t implemented yet.
static override is WIP and allow to modify linked data, dynamic override allow modifying local data as you pointed out.

thanks for the answer! I just saw the other topic, but I was a bit confused about what those overrides were actually be going to used for. The dynamic override is something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time, glad to see that it is actually in the plan.
