Render layer problem

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this so hopefully I’m in the right spot.

So I’m trying to do some post processing/compositing on this image. I’m trying to do a glow effect on the screen and I’m going through the tutorial and it says to move the screen to a different layer. I did that and then I selected both layers that have the scene and the screen so it would render together. I then created a second render layer for the screen.

Can someone tell me why the final rendered image doesn’t show both in the same window? Or is it supposed to be like that? What I’ve posted shows the rendered view, and the final rendered images. It also shows the settings for the most part.

Am I stupid, or is there something I’m missing?




Thanks! :slight_smile:

You’ve only posted material nodes. If you’ve set up compositing nodes, please show them. If you haven’t, that’s most of your problem. You need compositing nodes to combine render layers.

Better yet post a link to your .blend file.

I haven’t started compositing. It may just be BI, but from what I saw I thought it was possible to combine the layers without compositing.

Here’s the .blend file
