Hello All!
     I have never used image layers, which I guess is a throwback from iClone 4, but I recently just went into it, dragged in a png as the diffuse, made a quick opac and dragged that in as well.  Evidently there is more to it, as the window did not become "cut out" to reveal the scene underneath, as I had hoped it would.  Is there a bunch of layer stuff that has to be done in paint.net?  I never use layers, so I am pretty clueless.https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/007f682d-5540-4c6b-b214-ce04.png

That does seems odd... if you Ctrl Dragged an image onto the stage and added the opacity map... it should work. I usually create the .png image in my paint program with the "alpha" area already cutout. But that shouldn't make a difference.

Thanks, got it!  I did not realize that the cut out area in the opac for an overlay has to be transparent (checkered) as opposed to black.   https://vimeo.com/435887294
