Previously (in version 2.79) it was called Only Render. A very useful option! {attachment Only_Renderjpg}

* @evil_voland * o yes! exactly!!! when that was on it would hide stuff that isn't visible in the render , we need that back!

* @AnubisMaster * i think actually when you press the "rendered' view button you should see the viewport exactly as it will be seen in the render

* @Luciano A. Muñoz Sessarego * Unfortunately, you are wrong. Now, if you click the Render View button, you will see HOW visible objects will be rendered, but you will not see WHICH objects will be rendered. If some objects are hidden for viewing, but are included for rendering, then you will not see them before render.{attachment render_viewjpg}

* @evil_voland * you don't understand i need the Render preview IN THE VIEWPORT not when i press f12 lol , how am i supposed to know what's not visible in a big scene...

AnubisMaster Author

* @Luciano A. Muñoz Sessarego * Nope doens't work Luciano , works only when you Press f12 and have a RENDERED image ,but i don't have time to render every frame for big scenes

in Early 2.80 versions it worked perfectly in the viewport , now it doesn't (it also worked in 2.79 with OnlyRender option ticked)

* @AnubisMaster * This is exactly what I wrote above. In the screenshot, I showed that the viewport does not display what will be on the final render. Everything is good!

One more thing. You need to change the name of the topic using the word "Only Render" - this will be clearer for other users.
