Select Add Parameters in the override PPG - navigate in the pop up
explorer and find any visibility tab on any object, select the Primary rays
option - right click in the interface - Voila - a check mark appears that
will effect all objects in that partition!

Subject: disabling secondary rays on a partition
Hi chaps,
this should be really simple (I'm sure I knew how to do this in the past
but have mentally filtered it out somehow)
I've got 300 objects in a partition - I need to disable primary rays but
keep secondary for reflections - I get an override, but how do I give the
override or partition a visibility property?
I know all the london guys are in the pub already, can anyone else help,
'cause I'd like to be there as well!
Cheers,
Matt
