Maya 2023.1 Error with FalseColor

[Joegenco]

Config works however picking false color leads to an error and Maya does not display false color.

// Error: line 0: Failed to set view transform False Color: Singular Matrix can't be inverted..

Quoting out
- ! {matrix: [0.2658180370250449, 0.59846986045365, 0.1357121025213052, 0, 0.2658180370250449, 0.59846986045365, 0.1357121025213052, 0, 0.2658180370250449, 0.59846986045365, 0.1357121025213052, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1]}

Fixes the error and allows maya to display false color, but ofcourse breaks FalseColor.

These are things im encountering while trying to expand this configuration for production

The matrix is basically converting things to greyscale. How would you convert greyscale back to chromatic color? The matrix is not revertible by nature. That's why I put it in inactive space, to prevent users from reverting it. Why would Maya through errors? Why is it trying to revert a view transform?

[Joegenco]

Perhaps giving it a pseudo "to_scene_reference" conversion as a pacifier will fix it?

Ill try it out when I can get on it.

In the meantime, I'd love your blessing on the PixelManager. You're no longer on Twitter so cannot DM.

Pacifier idea worked.

Maya no longer throws an error and correctly displays the False Color after adding

    to_scene_reference: !<GroupTransform> #this is just a pacifier for the cry-baby Maya
      children:
       - !<ColorSpaceTransform> {src: Linear Rec.2020, dst: Rec.2020}
       - !<ColorSpaceTransform> {src: AgX Base Rec.2020, dst: Linear CIE-XYZ E}

to the false color as a measure. It does nothing, but it shut up Maya.

This is probably also true for Greyscale look, but Maya doesn't have a look window to directly test.
