I’m wondering if there is a MEL or Python command to determine what the render image format is currently set to (EXR, PNG, etc). I need to access this for a script. thx

getAttr “vraySettings.imageFormatStr”; :wink:

thanks - I knew it had to be something easy. Is there documentation for accessing these V-Ray attributes?

Just get attributes on vraySettings node. Select the vraySettings node and you will see all attributes.

determining current image output type?
