Thanks, that is helpful to know for the future. What I ended up doing is
finally just use one RenderTarget for each sub-framegraph and different
textures bound to Color0. That is much easier for what I’m trying to do. I
guess I was expecting RenderTargetSelector to have the effect of specifying the
output attachments of the fragment shader as well, and not require changes to
the shaders themselves.
Really appreciate the help and all the great work on Qt3D!

Hi Gil,
You shouldn't have to actually modify the Material to add in more passes.
What you have to do is edit the fragment shader to have more than 1 color
output:
e.g:
out vec4 fragColor1;
out vec4 fragColor2;
out vec4 fragColor3;
void main() {
fragColor1 = color;
fragColor2 = color;
fragColor3 = color;
}
By default the declaration order of the output maps to your attachments:
first output goes to ColorAttachment0, second output to ColorAttachment1 ...

Thanks Paul. My understanding of how to accomplish that would be to create an
Effect with multiple RenderPasses and then in the framegraph specify a filter
for each pass and the output surface for it. Is that all? I don’t see
anything in the shaders that is specific to the attachment… is anything needed
on that side of things?

Hi Gil,
I'm pretty sure that's because you are using the PhongMaterial which only
writes to Depth and Color0. You'd need to have your own material which writes
to 3 different outputs to properly populate the 3 color attachments.

Hello everyone, I’m sure I’m doing something wrong here, but basically, I’m
trying to render multiple frame graph subtrees into multiple texture targets,
and then draw those as part of the final scene (kind of like seeing security
camera feeds on a few textured quads). Attached is my minimal test app which
shows that only textures attached to Color0 seem to contain anything. Is it
because the surface is a QWindow? I’ve tried a more complicated example with
an offscreen render surface and an FBO with multiple color attachments added to
it, but the textures I got back from that were still empty.
Tested this on Mac with Qt 5.13.0.
If anyone is curious about why you would want to do this, I need to render up
to 3 different Qt3D scenes for integration into an external GL engine. So
different camera views and scene sub-trees need to be drawn onto separate
textures each frame.
