Rendering to File and the Camera Background

Recommended Posts

I have a scene that I am trying to render. I have the background property of the camera set to the desired color. When I render the view through the view port using Render Mode (Q), the background color renders in. When I do a Render to File, the background fails to render and all I get is a black background color. Any idea what is going on? Thanks.

It sounds like you have the Alpha Channel turned on in your render panel.

What you percieve as black is actually a transparency mask.

 

To turn it on/off look for it under BUFFERS on the Options tab.

 

Note: The Alpha Channels option won't show up for formats that don't support transparency.

Thanks for the help again, Rodney. :)
