Re: "use backround shader"?

["Daniel Bachmann" <xsi.dbachmann(at)gmail.com>]

just to warn you from using the 2D_background shader.... it has got a bug that i reported one month ago that could be fixed in the next version.

 

the bug is that the last line of a bg-image will be repeated on the first line of pixels too, like a 1 line vertical tiling.

 

have a good time,

daniel

Do you want a background image to show behind your render without compositing later?



If so, you can use a background pic shader.

Pass>Edit>Edit Current Pass
Click the output shaders tab.
Click add.
Choose 2D_background_pic and click ok.
Select the 2D_background_pic shader in the Stack window.
Click inspect.
Choose your background image.
Render


Note: BG image will not show till the entire frame is rendered.

Do you mean you want to matte something out?
If so, you can apply a lambert and turn it off, this matting out your object and in its alpha too.
