Hi folks,
Is there a way to change the checkered background
pattern in the render-window?
I've traversed the manual and failed to spot anything on the subject
I'd like to use something much darker.
Merci

No (short of modifying the source and re-compiling).
But if enough people ask I'd consider adding a way to do it.

I for one would be interested in such an option. Black would be preferred.

I was just going to ask this myself, and blow me down, here it is!
Yes, I too would like this as an option. I find it a bit glary,
especially if you're rendering a part of a scene and it's a dark part -
it takes a bit of time for the eyes to adjust to what's there.

I'd also welcome a feature in which I could
either stick to the proposed layout, or use
other colors, or, if this isn't too difficult, use
a different image altogether (like using the
first version of the image, and then I could alter
some things, render only the new stuff, and see
it in the context of the image, but I guess that's
actually a real lot to ask for, so nevermind).

Would a backdrop image be too much to ask for?

For the rendering screen? Just out of curiosity, why? I can understand
why Chris added the checkerboard pattern so that you can see alpha channel
masks and a black background is traditional, but I don't see any advantage
to a user specified background.

I assume for alternative viewing of alpha channel masks, etc. The checkerboard
may not be appropriate for all instances, or may not be to the user's liking.
At anyrate, I doubt it's to have something pretty to look at, but if it is:

Looks like I hit a nerve!
On early DOS based versions of POV, one would see the pixels being
traced as they were advacing during the trace. to some extent that
misses me but not enough to change to whole world over.
