Background


Overview

  • Images can be displayed in back of 3D objects

  • If the texture has an embedded alpha channel, it will be treated as transparent

  • Multiple images can be stacked on top of each other

  • It is possible to work with a reference image always displayed at the edge of the screen during modeling.

    • Easier than with ImagePlane, you can scale, offset, and display multiple images.

Notes for applying textures

Note

  • Connect the file node directly to the Color attribute

  • Color correction effects such as Color Space in the file node will be disabled.
