Hi all, I rendered an EXR image sequence with an Shading Depth (Pz) image plane. I can see the Pz in the Image Viewer app, but not in the Composite View tab in Houdini. Why?
Please check the attached image.

Update: I re-rendered the EXR, but this time I changed an option :
In the mantra render node > tab images > tab output > quantization = 32 bit float
So now the Pz image plane is available in the composite tab as well. AND the fog works (see my other thread).

But there's something I find strange : if the 16 bit option does not create a valide Pz, why can I see it in the Image Viewer app?
Thanks
