Render the scene as is with just the bottle and the reflective plane visible. Next bring the other objects in and render that with a non-reflective plane. Now go to Photoshop and composite the two by removing the plane in the second image and blend the two bottles

we need it because we're used to it
this is a common feature in 3d max so i guess we'd expect the same in maya...any way so this just has to be done in post by rendering in seperate passes
.there are many small things in max which i took for granted and wham !!! no cigar in maya.
i guess high end just means being able to script/program the software in and out.
so has any body asked if they can rotate the scale pivot yett
