Something like

Code: Select all

GEORGE : tv_imageIsEmpty layerID iPosition
RETURN bool 
1 if image(frame) is empty. 0 if something is drawn on the image

I know there is ways to do this with George for instance with tv_layercompareimage
But I would prefer a simpler solution that didn't inklude making new empty instances or layers
-Mads

GEORGE : tv_ImageContents layerID iPosition
RETURN bool 
- 0 if image(frame) is empty, 
- 1 if something is drawn on the image //pixel(s) with alpha > 0
