Separately styles for components
-
Hello
I'm about to do my last big project on university and in that work I will do a model I sketchup and use vray for photo realistic video. In the presentation I would like to highlight different components and a idea I got was to use different styles on selected components. My presentation would be like a movie there I will point out different components in the model at different times and then I got the idea to use styles. The idea was to have the normal "shaded with textures" on the selected component and "X-Ray" on the rest of the model. Is this possible or do I need to use photoshop or similar program and take to separate photos and add them toghether? -
Probably no. The style is applied to the whole view, and can be saved for a scene, but not individual objects. Some kind of PS is required, and it sounds like you are thinking of a 3d movie? If you just need stills that will be swapped in the video, it could work to combine scenes in LayOut such that components show different styles, but that's sort of a PS technique anyway.

I think I know a solution that don't need PS or layout. I take one picture of the component and background then a new picture with the hole model. Then I could take both in to PowerPoint and place the second picture above the first one and then I make it transparent to some degree that looks good. Maybe I have to take three picture where the selected component is at top but I don't need photoshop at least

It would definitely be possible. You would have to create an "x-ray" style equivalent material in V-Ray and apply it to the component you are trying to highlight to have the effect your looking for. Try the material I've created and attached. Its going to render a bit more slowly, but it should work for what you are trying.

I maybe wasn't clear enough but I would like to use X-Ray one everything except the componen I want to highlight so that it's easier to see. It would be a lot of work if I would have to change all other material in the model to be X-Ray.

So you would need to apply this "xray style" material to everything but the object you would want rendered.
