11. Presentation:

• ImportFolder: import files from a folder, adding a mask. Ex: if there is a folder with some renders named BPR_Render1.jpg and BPR_Mask1.jpg, the tool will copy the BPR_Mask1.jpg into the mask for BPR_Render1.jpg, the condition is that the first two fileds in the ui should be _Render and _Mask. If there is not specified the mask filed, it will make a mask from the Alpha1 channel. Done to use it for charater sheet presentation
