Hi I am using Solaris Houdini 18.0.416
I can see an image in my persp by loading an image in. (see top part of my screen grab). As soon as I look though my renderCamera (bottom (imported FBX) I cannot get any background image to show up. I have also tried loading images into the “image” tab as well as the persp one. Whatever I do my “Camera” tab stay greyed out. How would you load an image plane into a camera you want to render though in solaris/Karma. Thanks for any advise.
Best
Mark

I'm also looking for a solution to this problem. Is it just not currently possible to use an image plane through a camera in Solaris?
