Incidence in Keyshot?

Hi everyone!
I was wondering if there is a way to have incidence in Keyshot?
I have to create a oil rubbed bronze material and I think that it is the only way to reach my goal...
Thank you all!

Here an example of what I try to do:

Ok.. I'll assume nobody knows how to recreate this texture.. Thanks

My recommendation would be to emulate this effect using two renderings and some Photoshop/GIMP work. Use this thread (and BM's great work!) as inspiration:

Sorry, Philippe - Seems we were caught up in a little drama.

Welcome to the forum, BTW!

not sure what you mean by 'incidence' in this specific case but to me just a proper texture work should get you the same result or close enough to what is in that pic that you attached.

Thanks you for your answers!
I am searching a way of texturing the edges of my model (copper like color) onto the brushed metal...
Is there a way to only render the edges so I would do three renders 1.copper texture, 2. brushed metal and 3. my model's edges has an mask?
After that I would be able to comp it in photoshop.

Thanks!

Sure!

That was my thought .. didn't get around to posting it yet.
Give the rounded fillet edges in your CAD program a different color. They should show up in KS as separate faces to which you can aply a different color. Also in a clown-pass they should give you a selectable area.
