Hello, iClone Wizards,

Hey, is it possible to keep the grid in the video rendering?  My stage is using the two-dimensional grid provided by iClone against a backdrop of three-dimensional space (stars and galaxies.)  When I render to video, I lose my 2D grid.  I searched throughout the iClone tutorials for a way to keep the grid in my video, but could not find any data on the issue.  I then went to the internet and did a search for data on keeping the grid in my video rendering, but there was nothing there either.  How can I keep the grid in my final video rendering?

So asks the little old man from Newport, WA.

nah,  at least not that i know of,  but then there are many things i don't know of and don't figure out till i need it! heh! 
it should be easy enough to make though,   just drop this opacity map on any floor model -  it's not exact same size,  but will give you an idea of what I mean and the application of opacity maps ...you could even screen cap the iclone screen and just make the parts you want invisible black,  and whatever you want visible white  -  gray and all it's shades are grades of opacity -  darker being more transparent

also,  dont forget to click on the "Alpha threshold button"  to get clean edges, else it starts out a little off / blurry.

In the preview panel, set the render quality to "Preview". It will still be great quality, but will render the grid, bounding boxes if objects are selected, etc.
