Quick Holdout

In a complex scene with hundreds of collections, " holdout" feature needs to be activated manually for each sub-collection.

What if we need only the volumetrics to render and holdout every other collection? It would be very effective to set holdout ON in all collections and disable it only for the volumetrics collection.

Not exacly what You want, but maybe You didn't know about that:

  1. Shift+A - to collapse all colection hierarchy
  2. While holding shift drag holdout collection icon from top to bottom
  3. Unhouldout desired collection

As of now that, or custom script (easy to make).

You know if you shift + left click the Holdout icon it will recursively set holdout for every collection within that collection (same with the visibility etc)? Doesn't that solve your problem? So just put everything except volumetrics in one collection and shift+click that to set holdout
