Alpha channels with ,png sequence export

In iClone 8, exporting a ,png or sequence of .pngs results in no alpha channel. I disable background in 2D image, turn off the visibility on sky and shadow catcher, with no change. I can export a ,mov or .mp4 video, then again as an alpha only channel then composite them in after effects to utilize the alpha channel. Why won’t .pngs export with an alpha channel? Thank you foe any ideas.

Hi…

I just ran a quick test and my Sequence Image PNG’s all had an alpha channel as can be seen below.

To check this on your system, just load a single character into a new empty project. Confirm in Project Settings (CTRL+SHIFT+P) that you have no 2D Background active, and then render to Sequence PNG. You should then get the same result as in my test.

Pete_RL,
Thank you for the response. As it turns out, I was doing a single .png render as a test frame, not knowing that it has to be a sequence before the alpha is included. Thought I was losing it . . . :laughing:
