## **Overview**

---

Ray-Traced Textures provide some important scene data for use in compositing, such as particular distances and ratios.

A Ray-Traced Texture can be replaced with another Ray-Traced Texture or any other type of V-Ray texture via the **Replace With New Texture** (> Macro (inline-media-image)

) button, which activates when you select the texture to be replaced. If the texture is an instance, all copies are changed as well.
