Object and Material ID#276008

Can someone give me an explanation on how to do this. I tried toggling it the same way I do to get the alpha backgrounds. But there are no files in the output folder for the object and material ID's after the rendering is produced. So, something tells me it is not that simple. I found nowhere in the manual explaining how to do this. It just said what it was and produced. Silhouettes.

Any help appreciated.

There is a bug in the current version of the plugin - the objectID/materialID images are generated only if all render channels are enabled. This bug will be fixed in the next release of the plugin. Until then either enable all channels in plugin or use Studio to enable them.

Once enabled, objectID/materialID will generate images with color coded ID - this can be used for compositing. See following example (sample formZ chess file used):
