    hi,

    Is it possible to find the active camera in coffee or xpresso ?

    i'd like to make a coffee or xpresso tag to set the visible_in_render button
    according to the active camera.

    -> a lot of possibilities !!!

    if for example i have 5 cameras in an architectural scene
    i could have 5 lightning sets which automatically switch on/off when i change the camera!
    the same for compostiting backgrounds (like sky on a plane) or object groups which are not visible and mustnt slow down the renderer.
    etx

    Hi Zeorge,

    In COFFEE, you can use:

      
var cam = doc->GetRenderBaseDraw()#BASEDRAW_DATA_CAMERA;

    I'm not sure if there's a way to do it in Xpresso, other than a COFFEE node with the code above.

    HTH
