Deep output – Specifies whether to include this render element in deep images.
Filename suffix – – The explicit channel name. The text will be used as a channel name for multi-channel images or as a suffix in the rendered file, for single-channel images (e.g. myrender.lightselect.exr).

Type– Specifies the type of lighting contribution to be generated for the selected lights in the element as follows:
Direct illumination – Outputs all direct light bounces, including diffuse and specular information. Direct raw – Outputs only the raw direct light bounces. No diffuse or specular information is included. Direct diffuse – Outputs only the direct diffuse light bounces. No specular information is included. This mode is similar to the Lighting render element. Direct specular – Outputs only the direct specular lighting information. No diffuse information is included. This mode is similar to the Specular render element. Full – Outputs all available information in the scene, such as GI, SSS, reflection, refraction, etc. This essentially creates a Beaуty render for just the included light(s). Indirect – Outputs all indirect light bounces, including indirect diffuse and specular information. Indirect diffuse – Outputs only the indirect diffuse light bounces. This mode is similar to the GI render element. Indirect specular – Outputs only the indirect specular light bounces. This mode is similar to the Reflection render element. Light path expression – Allows capturing custom light transport paths with regular expressions. Right-click in the field for a list of presets. See the Light Path Expressions page for more information. When enabled, an LPE Builder button becomes available.
