Hi, I’m trying to get a rendered image by ViewCaptureToClipboard as an alternative option of opening a separate rendering window for Cycle render. While both produce the same images, by far, I did not manage to get an image with an alpha channel. When I turn “transparent background” on, the background image is altered with a solid black color. What I’m actually doing is to paste the image to Photoshop by hitting “Ctrl+V”, so there is a chance the alpha channel is actually there in the clipboard intact, but anyway I could not find a way to get an image with a transparent background. Is there any hint on this?
So the workflow would be to make 2 captures, one with your desired display mode, then an additional with the Alpha display mode. Paste them both in Photoshop.
