donka Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Is it possible to Export from AP iPad with transparency? I know we can import and use files with transparency but I have such a file that I have made some colour changes to and trying to export as a png with transparency but the background is saving as plain white.

Staff Lee D Posted December 7, 2017 Staff Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hi donka, Welcome to the forums. You should be able to export with transparency using the default PNG-24 preset. Some image viewers may show the transparency as white. Have you tried opening or importing the image over the top of another to check that you can see image below the transparent area. If you're still having issues, save a copy of your Affinity file and PM me a link and I'll check it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donka Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Thanks Lee. I'll share a copy tonight when I'm back home. I was using the PNG-24 preset and it definitely has transparency in AP as confirmed by the chequerboard background. Exporting via Share to Photos or normal export to Files and pull it back into AP using place image and it has a white background. May be something stupid I'm doing though.

donka Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 This is with the latest beta. I can try the retail version when I get home to compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donka Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Just tested retail 1.6.5 and it works fine so this is a definite issue with the current beta version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
