Synopsis

ogsRender [-activeMultisampleType string] [-activeRenderOverride string] [-activeRenderTargetFormat string] [-availableFloatingPointTargetFormat] [-availableMultisampleType] [-availableRenderOverrides] [-camera string] [-currentFrame] [-currentView] [-enableFloatingPointRenderTarget boolean] [-enableMultisample boolean] [-frame float] [-height uint] [-layer name] [-noRenderView] [-width uint]

ogsRender is NOT undoable, queryable, and editable.

Renders an image or a sequence using the OGS rendering engine

Return value

boolean

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Keywords

ogs, offline, rendering

Flags

activeMultisampleType, activeRenderOverride, activeRenderTargetFormat, availableFloatingPointTargetFormat, availableMultisampleType, availableRenderOverrides, camera, currentFrame, currentView, enableFloatingPointRenderTarget, enableMultisample, frame, height, layer, noRenderView, width
Long name (short name) Argument types Properties
-width(-w) uint createqueryedit
The width flag pass the width to the ogsRender command. If not used, the width is taken from the render globals settings.
-height(-h) uint createqueryedit
The height flag pass the height to the ogsRender command. If not used, the height is taken from the render globals settings.
-camera(-cam) string createqueryedit
Specify the camera to use. Use the first available camera if the camera given is not found.
-currentView(-cv) createqueryedit
When turned on, only the current view will be rendered.
-layer(-l) name createqueryedit
Render the specified render layer. Only this render layer will be rendered, regardless of the renderable attribute value of the render layer. The layer name will be appended to the output image file name. The specified render layer becomes the current render layer before rendering, and remains as current render layer after the rendering.
-noRenderView(-nrv) createqueryedit
When turned on, the render view is not updated after image computation
-frame(-f) float createedit
Specify the frame to render.
-currentFrame(-cf) createqueryedit
Render the current frame.
-availableRenderOverrides(-aro) queryedit
Returns the names of available render overrides.
-activeRenderOverride(-cro) string queryedit
Set or query the current active render override.
-enableMultisample(-ems) boolean queryedit
Enable/disable multisample.
-availableMultisampleType(-amt) queryedit
Returns the names of available multisample type.
-activeMultisampleType(-mst) string queryedit
Query the current active multisample type.
-enableFloatingPointRenderTarget(-efp) boolean queryedit
Enable/disable floating point render target.
-availableFloatingPointTargetFormat(-afp) queryedit
Returns the names of available floating point render target format.
-activeRenderTargetFormat(-fpt) string queryedit
Query the current active floating point target format.
