L3P 1.4 beta 20080930 - transparent parts not transparent enough?

[Travis Cobbs]

There's no way to turn off the "background" declaration after the fact. Could you make it optional? I need renders with transparent backgrounds.

I should be able to wrap that in a #ifndef and add another setting. I'll have to get back to you on that.

I think I found a workaround for this. Put the following in an include file:

Code:

background { color rgbf <0,0,0,1> }

Set that include file as the "bottom include" in LDView's POV export options. It's not clean, since it's redefining the background with a fully transparent one, instead of skipping the background definition in the first place, but it seems to work.
