Hi,

I´ve been wondering of how I could adjust the glare/bloom in post processing node.
I would like to better of how the glare would affect only the small areas around the bright light etc.

Let´s say I have a bright window and a furniture in front of it. I have some DOF so the furnoture is not in focus. I want the bright window to make a nice glare/bloom on the edges of the furniture and some glare at the edges of the window. Like here : https://www.flickr.com/photos/bbb3viz/22729833982/

I increase the glare/bloom but I get the whole room brighter. I would like to adjust the glare so it would only make effect like 10-20 cm around the window/furniture. Can this be done?

Currently the post-processing node doesn't have more options to fine control the bloom/glare effects. Perhaps you could use the render passes to export the post-processing pass and compose it with the beauty pass in post.
