Hi Manuel:
Using IPR to render, you can change the AOVs in Arnold render setting
(Render View AOV) and restart the IPR render, this should update your
IPR preview of what your selected AOV will look like. I usually just
bind this to a key so I can fire it off without having to have the
Render Settings tab open all the time when adjusting lighting.
I don't know of a way to get IPR in the viewport natively, although I
know it can be done with custom plugin/scripts. Example:

HTH!
Yours sincerely,
Siew Yi Liang

Hi,
I am trying to setup a lookdev workflow in maya, and coming from xsi I
am used
to work doing shading while constantly switching comparing renders in
the render region,
I do this for every different channel I need to compare (specular,
diffuse, sss, etc...)
I find that really easy and quick to get visual feedback while
developing shaders.
I am trying to do the same thing in maya, but I don't seem to find the
aov's in the
viewport as an option nor do I know if I can compare them on the fly.
I know that I can render separate or composed aov exr's but what I'd
like is to be able to preview and compare renders and multiple
channels while on maya.
So my question is, am I obligated to go to nuke to do this using maya
or am I missing something obvious? thanks for your help.
