Visibility

The following is an example of a typical workflow for visibility in RPR Plug-in for Houdini:

1. Launch Houdini and save new .hip file in the current directory.

2. Add the Sublayer node.

   

3. Set the sublayer path to $HIP/../../../asset/basicScene/generated/scene.usda.

   

4. Select the RPR renderer.

   

5. Add the Render Geometry Settings node.

6. Turn on Display in the node.

   

7. Set Primitives to /sphereGlass/geo.

8. Activate Camera Visibility and clear it.

   

9. Do the same with Shadow Visibility.

   

10. Change Primitives to /shaderBall/geo/mesh_0.

11. Clear Refraction Visibility - the shaderBall should disappear from refraction in the glass sphere. (refractionVis.png)
