Hi,

I am designing a circular logo through affinity designer. I am having trouble removing the reset art board so that I can export my image just as the circle. I have been looking everywhere but I have not found a solution. I already set the background to transparent when I set up the document but it will not save without it. Essentially, I am wondering how to remove the background and save my design as a circle instead of also saving the white space background on the art board. Any help would be amazing I have been looking for so long and I am very frustrated!

Thanks!

What format (file type) are you exporting to? Not all formats support transparency.

Also, what release of Designer, and on what OS?

If I create a new document in Designer and specify that it should create an artboard and allow a transparent document, I get a transparent artboard, not one with a white background. Are you sure you specified Transparent Background on the New Document dialog?
