ID 596840 - Batch exporting different EXR types exports the same Type for all items

Follow

Problem summary:

Batch exporting different EXR types exports the same Type for all items

When exporting via Export Manager, it seems to use the last selected setting.
But when exporting with Channel/Layer export, it always seems to use Tiled if you select different types during the export.

Compression types do not seem affected.

Steps to reproduce:

For export manager:

  1. Create a procedural node e.g. Bubbles
  2. Connect 3 16bit Channel nodes - name them "tiled","rman","scanline"
  3. Open Export Manager
  4. Add the Channels as Export Items if they are not present
  5. Set the templates as $CHANNEL.$UDIM.exr
  6. Double click each item's File Options cell and set their EXR Type according to their Channel name
    Note that upon opening File Options, the current settings for the item are not actually being displayed - take care to confirm and not cancel

  7. Export the channels
  8. Check their EXR type (tiled, tiled with mipmaps, scanline) using exrheader or another tool
    Result: Last selected EXR Type is used for all exports
For channel exports:
  1. Create 3 16bit Channels - name them "tiled","rman","scanline"
  2. Add a procedural layer to each - e.g. Bubbles
  3. Channels > Export Flattened > Export All Channels Flattened
  4. Set the template as $CHANNEL.$UDIM.exr and export
  5. Set the EXR File Settings > Type according to the channel name (expand the dialog to see it)
  6. Check their EXR type (tiled, tiled with mipmaps, scanline) using exrheader or another tool
    Result: All exports are Tiled
For Layer exports:
  1. Create a 16bit Channel
  2. Add 3 procedural layers - name them "tiled","rman","scanline"
  3. Layers > Export All Layers
  4. Set the file templates as $LAYER.$UDIM.exr and export
  5. Set the EXR File Settings > Type according to the layer name (expand the dialog to see it)#
  6. Check their EXR type (tiled, tiled with mipmaps, scanline) using exrheader or another tool
    Result: All exports are Tiled

Expected behaviour:

Should match the setting per-export item/channel/layer

Actual behaviour:

Export Manager: they all have the last selected EXR type - if you set the "scanline" channel to scanline last, all the textures are exported as scanline.

Channel/Layer export: Always seem to be exported as tiled if varying settings are used. 

Workaround:

No known workaround.

Tested versions/platforms:
