A question about Triplanar.  
Can I put a photo on Triplanar and Triplanar takes over the photo?  
Or do I have to put the photo as background and trace everything?

Thank you and greetings from germany  
Frank

It’s not possible for now, however you can use an alpha with the mask tool with a drag stroke type.

You probably want to change the falloff to « one » as well.  
Note that for the next release the SelMask tool will be available for Triplanar as well.

Hi Stephane,

thanks for the info.  
This procedure is enough for me for now.

But I agree that the SelMask should be installed.

Thanks and greetings
