So I was looking at upgrade7_5.txt and I noticed



and I wondered what it was all about, and if it had anything to do with



Anybody have any ideas or info on this?

Seems to me that it would be handy for blue/green screen compositing maybe. Or if you set the Back to black and the ForeColorWipe to white or some grayscale value, you've got an instant alpha channel for your objects.

Well, I'm not sure what the backdrop colour is for, but the new plugin is in my signature

I'm wondering if that's something that was added for DarkClouds, that uses the backdrop, and involved some changes to backdrop texturing.

Ah, well, I would guess there's no connection then.

I'm still curious though.

@Van B - I didn't notice the change to COLOR BACKDROP until way way after dark clouds. But... I might have missed it.
