Alpha Mode set to "Ignore ALpha" by default

[zoranm]

Hi,

Is it possible to set Alpha Mode in Blending panel to Ignore Alpha by default? So that every time I open a new sequence it opens with Ignore Alpha on instead of Premultiplied Mask?


PDplayer 64 version 1.0.7.32

Yes, you can. To do that follow either of these methods:

-Via the PDPlayer UI

1. Open a .exr file and right-click onto the 'blend and alpha mode' button (https://ftp.chaosgroup.com/support/p...4_11-58-13.png)
2. Click "Ignore Alpha"
3. Right-click on the button again and click "Set ignore alpha as default"

-Via a .bat file

1. Create a commands.txt file, from which you may set various parameters to be read by PDPlayer. In your case write the following commands: start pdplayer --alpha=ignore
2. Create a .bat file that opens a file and reads the commands from the already created commands.txt file. It should look like this: "C:\Program Files\Pdplayer 64\pdplayer64.exe" "%~f1" [--attach] --cmdfile=C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\commands.txt [--exit]
3. Drag and drop an image onto the .bat file (or set the default program to be the .bat file)

This way you may add various commands that you may find useful. Full list of commands available in the technical documentation here:
