thiasdnu reacted to MEB in Export an image with transparent background (afphoto)
Hi thiasdnu,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
You're probably trying to save the image as a jpeg. This format does not support transparency. To get the background transparent you have to export as PNG following the steps Callum outlined above.

Hi Thiasdnu,
Welcome to the forums :)
If you go to File > Export > PNG there will be a preset for with transparency. This will stop any transparent parts of your photo coming out as white.

thiasdnu reacted to MEB in Straight lines?
Hi jhmdigital
You can use the Pen Tool to draw straight lines by clicking on the canvas (don't drag the mouse). If you want you can set its Mode to Line Mode on the context toolbar to force it to draw only straight lines.

thiasdnu reacted to evtonic3 in Beginner Question: Selecting Paint Brush Color
To use the eyedropper just left-click and hold the eyedropper, then drag over the desired area where you want to get a sample from for your color. You can also drag outside of the Affinity Designer window and get a sample from anywhere including apps on your desktop. Useful if you want a sample from a picture on the web. Once you have found the color sample you want, let left-click go. The color chosen will appear in the color well next to the eyedropper, to apply the color just click that color well. Then paint away!

thiasdnu reacted to MEB in Transparent background
Hi Signguy,
In Affinity Photo you can go to Filters ▹ Colours ▹ Erase White Paper to remove the white background.
In Affinity Designer those filters are not available so i would create a mask (attached to the image layer) to hide the white background.
There's several ways to do it, the easiest is probably to use the Selection Brush Tool to create a rough selection of the flower then refining it, selecting mask as the output.
