Vray 5: Switch to RGB channel button gone

[kosso_olli]

Hey guys,
I already wrote this over at the beta forum, but somehow this was never answered: Can we please have the switch to RGB channel button back? Right next to the switch to the alpha channel?
It was really useful to quickly go back to RGB after browsing various render elements or to quickly toggle between RGB and RGB with applied effects like glare/denoising

Side note: None of the buttons in the VFB have any tooltip. Is this intended?

Well, in my opinion now it's even better, because you have buttons that can switch off lens effects and denoiser independently.

About the tooltips - can you pinpoint what's missing?

[kosso_olli]

The missing tooltips was caused by the older non-official release.

Regarding the switch to RGB button: Yes, but it is way more inconvenient, because more clicks on the totally other side of the screen.

I sure thought in VRay 3 you could PageUp and PageDown to change element buffers (RGB, Alpha, MultiMatte, ZDepths, etc.) all the time. Like whenever the VFB was in focus these keys worked.

Now you seem to have to select the popup menu, at which point you can just use arrow keys. This also require that you select the popup.

Could we get the PageUp and PageDown keys to go through the elements?

Thanks.

Hello,

I've made a note in our internal bug-tracker, regarding the PageUp / PageDown keyboard shortcuts (issue ID: VMAX-10117)

Best regards,
