No background in 2.41 for MAC!!!!?

zigzaviour · February 1, 2006, 10:04pm

SO i have run into a problem with trying to apply a background image to work with in 2.41 on my MAC. I can do it with ease in 2.37a but nothing shows up in the latest version or in 2.40. I am doing everything right as far as I know but still I get no image. Has anyone else had this issue. I am on a MAC with OS 10.4 Tiger. Is this a bug and if so who do I report it to.

Thanks

I can’t get it to work on my Mac either. Looks like it’s broken on other platforms, too:

Have fun,

Thanks for the heads up. I was wondering what your opinion was on the 2.37a version of Blender opposed to the latest version. Is there a lot of limitations or is it just as good?

Thanks

2.41 has oodles of improvements, many of them pretty extensive.

I’m using Blender 2.41 and OS X Panther and it’s working fine here. I think there are some features that are not working correctly with Tiger at the moment. Soon i will get another Mac with Tiger installed i’m wondering if it’s working there.

i’m on tiger 10.4.4 with 2.41 and it seems to be working ok (both viewport background images and rendering background images). could it be a mac videocard glitch? i’ve got an ati radeon 9650.
