Image Settings¶
Image Panel¶
- Image
Data-block menu.
- New
+ - The New Image button opens a pop-up to configure a Generated image.
- New
Source¶
See about supported Formats graphiques pris en charge.
Single Image¶
Still image or a single frame.
Image Sequence¶
Each frame is stored in a separate file. How to Ouverture d’une séquence d’images.
- Frame
- A label showing the current frame.
- Further options
- See Movie below.
Movie¶
Frames packed into a container.
- Deinterlace
- Removes fields in a video file. For example, if it is an analog video and it has even or odd interlacing fields.
- Frame
- Frames
- Sets the range of frames to use.
- Start
- Global starting frame of the sequence, when the playback should start. This is a global setting which means it affects all clip users such as the Movie Clip editor itself, motion tracking constraints and compositor nodes.
- Offset
- Offsets the first frame of the clip. It adds an extra offset to the frame number when converting a scene frame to the frame number in the file name. This option does not affect tracking data or any other associated data.
- Match Movie Length
- This button sets image’s user’s length to the one of selected movie.
- Auto Refresh
- Automatically refresh images on frame changes.
- Cyclic
- Start over and repeats after the last frame to create a continuous loop.
Generated¶
Image generated in Blender.
- Width, Height
- The size of image in pixels.
- Color
- Sets the fill color if creating a blank image.
- 32 bit Float / Float Buffer
- Creates a 32 bit image. This is a larger file size, but holds much more color information than the standard 8 bit image. For close ups and large gradients, it may be better to use a 32 bit image.
- Type
- Blank
- Creates a Blank image of a single specified color.
- UV Grid
- Creates a checkerboard pattern with a colored cross (+) in each square.
- Color Grid
- Creates a more complex colored grid with letters and numbers denoting locations in the grid. It could be used for testing how the UVs have been mapped and to reduce stretching or distortion.
Common Options¶
- File
Use for replacing or packing files.
- Pack
- Embed the resource into the current blend-file.
- Path
- Path to the linked file.
- Open
- Opens the File Browser to select a file from a drive.
- Reload
- Reloads the file. Useful when a file has been reworked in an external application.
- Color Space
-
- sRGB
- Standard RGB display space.
- Linear
- Linear 709 (full range). Blender native linear space.
- Linear ACES
- ACES linear space.
- XYZ
- Standard linear XYZ space.
- Non-Color
- Color space used for images which contains non-color data (e.g. normal maps).
- Raw
- Same as Non-Color.
- Filmic Log
- Intermediate log color space of Filmic view transform.
- View as Render
- Applies color transform when displaying this image on the screen.
- Use Multi-View
- See Multi-View.
- Alpha
Representation of alpha in the image file, to convert to and from when saving and loading the image. See Alpha Channel.
- Straight
- Store RGB and alpha channels separately with alpha acting as a mask, also known as unassociated alpha. Commonly used by image editing applications and file formats like PNG. This preserves colors in parts of the image with zero alpha.
- Premultiplied
- Store RGB channels with alpha multiplied in, also known as associated alpha. The natural format for renders and used by file formats like OpenEXR. This can represent purely emissive effects like fire correctly, unlike straight alpha.
- Channel Packed
- Different images are packed in the RGB and alpha channels, and they should not affect each other. Channel packing is commonly used by game engines to save memory.
- None
- Ignore alpha channel from the file and make image fully opaque.
