hey everyone! I think the title explains itself but here is an example.
For instance I created a giant sphere to act as a sky and cast soft shadows on objects with its final gather cast. I don't want to see this sky object in render but I want to keep its final gather casts to other objects. How can I do that?

select the object and uncheck primary visibility under the render stats section in the attribute editor.
