Blurring a non-texture in Malt

[Psi25]

As far as I know, to blur textures in Malt you can only blur textures using the 3 blur nodes. Is there perhaps a way to blur non-texture stuff in Malt?

That would be an interesting idea. But as long as there are no node groups in Malt, this would not really be possible. But I can imagine it being added to Malt in the future.

For now you need to render whatever you want to blur to a texture using the 'Screen Pass' pipeline node and then feed that into your Main pass or into another 'Screen Pass' pipeline node.

Do I put the Screen Pass on the Default Render Layer? Then feed it to the Main Pass?

I might be doing something wrong....

Seems like you are using the Background Material for the blur?
You should use a new material with its own node tree.

In this case, though, you could simply link the PrePass->ease output to the MainPass->ease input and use the Blur node inside the Mesh node tree (instead of the Image node you are currently using).

That explains why...

So the textures looks like it's projected into the mesh. I put a Camera Data node and plugged the screen uv, then it works fine now.
