I've done a quick serach with term "visible," and I didn't see (I might have missed, but anyway)... I would like to request a feature to change "visiblity" of an object.

I was making a simple room setup, but I needed to place a camera outside the room to get the view I want. And of course, the wall of room blocked the camera, and removing the blocking wall would result in wrong results.

So I would like to request the "not seen by camera" option... making an object invisible to camera (i.e. not rendered) while keeping it visible to GI, reflection... etc (It's even better if I can control what it can be seen...).

Thanks.

agree 500%... I am doing houses cutaways... (aka top views without ceiling..) but I don(t want to remove the ceiling ! because then the lighting is wrong ! I want the light to come through the windows only !

and there is no other ways...
