Deep Channel Kernel -> Material ID separate channels

[w5render]

First of all the deep_channel_kernel is a great new feature. Thanks a lot!!!

I have unsuccessfully tried to got the separate color channels form the Material ID, to use them as mask in Photoshop.
The UserManual says "Material ID: Every material pin is represented as a separate color."

To be honest, I'm not sure if I correctly understood how to use Material ID.
Actually, I thought that all colors are stored in a separate channel, so that you can use each channel as a mask?

But for some reason i don´t get them or even get a multilayered untonemapped EXR.

When you render your main image, then you can render a material id pass. In photoshop you can use magic wand selection tool to select a specific colour on material id and modify that element from your main rendering accordingly. Alternatively you can hide your material id pass in photoshop while you chose an object. Benefits are to perhaps make adjustments to colours on objects and change them so you don't have to render again.

Material ID pass is a very precious feature for post processing, as a helper to select accurately desired areas. For example it allows to change the color of a car or a cloth on a character, brighten or darken a material without modifying the scene and rendering again.

Sorry, I hadn't read enough : I have just seen that MaTtY631990 already said the same thing !
