1.7.1 Is Filling transparent areas of PSD files with white


Recommended Posts

create a PSD in photoshop, say a solid rectangle in the middle of an image leaving empty transparent areas. save as PSD

open in  Photo 1.7.1 and trans parent areas filled with white/ :(

alpha channel in channels panel shows correct alpha, or at least an inverted one where white is supposed to be transparent areas.

can't edit, paint, select on alpha channel to delete it, or in any way fix it. any apps now using the image downstream will have the transparent areas filled if you save the image out.

PSD transparency used to work ok.

 

UPDATE : opened image from Photo into PS, and Photo had some how added a solid white layer as the BG most layer. For any app using the layers transparency, this killed the transparency even though alpha channel looked ok. Saved PSD out of PS and went onto the rest of the job :/ 

 

Item is Vector smart object and it doesn't appear to actually be rasterized into pixels because you can't just delete the empty area. when importing the PSD from Photo into OS, there is new white solid layer. image attached to post below

Did you have Transparent Background enabled in Photo when you created the image?
