How to Ad a background image?????

[morphious2013]

Is it possible to ad a back ground color or picture into the Octane Plugin? It does not pick it up from Poser.

Hi - you can add a background image to the Viewport render, however this is for visualisation purposes only, and you will need to composite the background and render in Gimp/Photoshop. To do this, enable Kernel->Alpha Channel, then rightclick the Settings panel and select Load Background Image. When you save to png, the background image in NOT saved.

No, the plugin does not fit the background image to the Viewport. The background image is purely for visualisation purposes - you need to composite the two together outside Octane.
