Renderer Panel (Render Setup Dialog)

The Render Setup dialog Renderer panel contains the main controls for the active renderer. Depending on which renderer is active, additional panels can become available.

Tip: Each renderer has different and unique capabilities. Based on these, you decide which renderer you want to use for each scene. It is a good idea to design materials with a particular renderer in mind.
