  • Cryptomatte Manifest Options Request

    Hello,

    I was wondering if you could add more options on the Crytomatte render element regarding how the manifest is named. When I was at Psyop there were options built in to give the user more control over how objects or materials were written. For example, whether or not to strip out the namespaces for either object or material flags, or if you wanted shading groups or top level material names on the material option.

    Would it be do-able to add these options? In Maya the shading group names tend to stay more consistent than a top level material, and thus, are more stable in a cryptomatte workflow. Having the ability to strip the name space or add it in means we can choose to have a cryptomatte affect all materials or objects shared between assets or only one specific namespace.

    Thank you for the help.
