Hi George,
do you have a sample composition where we can have a look at?
Anyways, if you just want to have a simple hit test on an image mask,
you can also use the Image Pixel patch.
best,

I will say that in SL, if I place an image in the mask, I don't get
an error like that, but rather, QC goes into a state of insanity.
If I have an output on the Hit Test connected to an Image With
String, and then a Billboard, to test hits, and then connect an
image to mask, the actual Billboard connected to the image with
string blanks out. Then, at that point, if I restart the Viewer, the
Sprite renders twice as large as it's supposed to! If I do it again,
it's twice as large as the last time. At that point... I just stopped.
The hit test is extremely useful, especially because it works in Z
as well as X/Y. QC would be very limited (almost useless?) if there
were none of the "private patches", so it would really be nice to
see them become something officially supported and documented,
instead of being tossed aside in favor of newer, official, features
that still don't actually work.

Hi List!
I'm trying to figure out the Mask Image input for the (private) Hit
Test patch in QC3.1. Should I feed it with a special kind of image?
Any image I tried (different color modes, with/without alpha) throws
an exception:

Is this a known bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
