Idea #485: Render only Compositor

Written by DavidBrennan the 29 Apr 12 at 19:41. Category: Compositing. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
It would be good to have a Render Option where the user can opt to ONLY render the results from the Compositor.

Currently, if one want to only render the compositor (for instance, to render out an Image Sequence to later overlay), they have to have the (simple) work-around of having the camera in the 3D View viewing nothing at all. The final results are the same, but the problems are (a) it takes a little bit of extra render time - on my slow computer, each frame is an extra three or four seconds, for instance, and (b) that very often can require unwanted changes to existing scenes (although I believe simply sending the camera to an unused layer works most often, I'm not sure it would always be a solution).
