      Hello,

      the alpha channel you discovered is no feature of Cinema 4D, it is only used internally in some special cases. Because of this it is not properly integrated and not meant to be used.

      The only way to render using the "viewport" is through the Software or Hardware renderer. Both renderers are closed render engines that only return the RGB image.

      Best wishes,
      Sebastian
