Setting ACES background images
This is how you can properly set the background images if you work in ACES in Blender.
UPDATE: This is probably be fixed in the next Blender release. One of the dev gave me this way to fix it:
Inside your Blender installation you can find all the scripts. In the same place as
the executable there is a folder named after the version (so "3.6", "4.0", etc). Inside
that is a "scripts" folder containing "startup" and inside that is a "bl_ui" folder.
If you open up one in there, "properties_data_camera.py" in any text editor you
will see all the python that is used in that one area of the Properties editor.
If you search for "show_background_images" you will find the applicable section.
Basically at about line 381 or so there is a section like this:
if has_bg:
col = box.column()
col.prop(bg, "alpha", slider=True)
col.row().prop(bg, "display_depth", expand=True)
You just have to add a line in there like this:
if has_bg:
col = box.column()
col.prop(bg.image, "use_view_as_render")
col.prop(bg, "alpha", slider=True)
col.row().prop(bg, "display_depth", expand=True)
Note that python is a bit fussy about whitespace, so you might want to
copy the left-side spaces from a different line.
Thanks Harley!

Install it like you would install any addons.
ACES is mostly for the VFX industry. If that's not your case, stick with AGX. :-)
