Hi,

How can I switch on DEPTH for multipass-renderings in a rendersetting?

I manage to switch on multipass itself, but cannot find the id for switching on any of the multipass-options. drag and drop to the konsole only results in the message "Das Objekt 'Tiefe' /Zmultipass' wurde hinzugefügt".

Here is a small piece of code to create a depth multipass object:

import c4d
from c4d import gui
"""
Create a depth object in
the multipass object list
"""
  
  
def main() :
    rd=doc.GetActiveRenderData() #get the current renderdata
    vdepth=c4d.BaseList2D(c4d.Zmultipass) #create a multipass object
    vdepth.GetDataInstance()[c4d.MULTIPASSOBJECT_TYPE]=c4d.VPBUFFER_DEPTH #set type to 'Depth'
    rd.InsertMultipass(vdepth) #insert into Multipass list
    c4d.EventAdd() #send global event
  
if __name__=='__main__':
    main()

I will add this example to the documentation.

Also take a look at the c4d_videopostdata.h to get a list of all videopost IDs.
