scp Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 How do I set a colour as transparent (usually white) for file types that support transparency? This seemed to be easier in PhotoPlus...? Thanks. I just can't find the method for doing this anywhere in the documentation. Apologies if I'm being a bit thick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 For shapes, just select the object & either click on the "None" tab on the Context toolbar "Fill:" popup or click on any of the several white circular or rectangular color swatches with a red slash-mark through them in any color panel.

Fixx Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Usually colour is not transparent, it is COLOUR. If you want transparency, make image transparent. Checkerboard pattern indicates transparency. Setting colour transparent is old GIF generation method, nowadays you just use transparency as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
