Default Camera, Aperture, and Focus Distance are now greyed out in Iray after updating to 11.1

These settings are locked and uneditable, really limiting our ability to create realistic renders as we could in previous versions.

I tried opening a new project as well as opening old projects from previous versions. Can;t ever seem to access these controls in iray any longer.

Does this happen to everyone?

First of all, make sure to enable Post Effects and DOF.

 

And for some reason, since 11.1, the Aperture and Focus Distance values can only be edited in Painting mode (not in Iray).

 

We're still investigating, but I confirm there's an unexpected behavior here, so thank you once again for your report.

Thank you for the report.

 

I'm currently investigating and I'll come back to you as soon as I have an answer.

I rolled back to 11.0.3, and the FD and Aperture sliders are restored.
