This may have been raised as an issue before in passing though I can't find a specific reference in the forum.
Including one scene within another which both have Post-processing can, in certain circumstances, cause black output in the parent scene. This is especially irksome when creating during a live performance when including a scene as a child of another. It is also frustrating during scene development trying to track down what is causing a blank screen in a big composition. I've attached a paired down demonstration comp.
Is it possible/feasible to disable PP in all child scenes by default?
Post-processing in child scene
Re: Post-processing in child scene
For any scene you can right-click its name (in the Folder or Tab panels) and select the option "Exclude Scene From Post-Processing". Is that sufficient?
Re: Post-processing in child scene
I use PP exclusion for all utility scenes and it works great to avoid this and it will work if you know the the scene will be used as a child. The cases where this is not sufficient is when:
- a child legitimately uses PP when that scene is played independently of any parent.
- you're combining and mixing projects and accidentally have this situation occur - a module instance search across scenes might help.
- in the throws of performance and one wants to bring in child scenes with PP as elements you have to a) remember and, b) do it.
Re: Post-processing in child scene
Ok I understand. I'll see what I can do.
