Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to make the octane workspace (semi-)transparent. That would make it easier to adjust camera perspective by simply laying it over an existing image and then flying around until it fits.

Or is there another way to do so?

Cheers

Hi stiwi,

On our list of things to do is to allow an image as a backdrop (instead of the checkerboard you see when you enable the alpha channel). This should help in positioning your scene for composting.

Thanks
Chris.
