How to maintain transparency background for Photostream

I am trying to get some product images on a television using Apple TV. I have them all up, but I am having aheck of a time keep the transparent background. I have tried PNG file, TIFF file, and of course I did check the "keep transparency" box when saving in Photoshop. I just cannot figure it out. What do you guys think? How do I get them working?

I guess it will be SU12 Transaction.

How to save transparent background images to have transparent background thumbnails with Photoshop 2014?

In old versions of Photoshop there was a feature that made thumbnail images have a transparent background. I'm a CC member using Photoshop 2014 on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.4 and every thumbnail of a transparent background image I've created in Photoshop 2014 appears on my desktop with a solid white box background that has a thin black outlined box inside of it. How do I save the transparent background images I've created in Photoshop 2014 so they will appear on my desktop as thumbnails with a transparent background? I'd like to continue to be able to replace the default background-less folder icon that that appears on files with transparent background thumbnails to customize my files as I use to do with older versions of Photoshop.

If your layered document has a Photoshop background layer it visibility need to be set off when saving a PNG or Gif file for Photoshop background layers do not support transparency.
Thumbnail may be a bit more complicated than you think. I do not use Lightroom, and only occasionally use the bridge. I believe Lightroom and Bridge keep thumbnails they develop for image files in their library databases and caches. Other programs do not have acces to these. RAW Files and Image files have Jpeg previews stored in then. I believe most application use these previews jpeg to create thumbnails. Jpeg format does not support transparency.
Icon on the desktop are not always thumbnails some are embedded icons in application modules other are icon in dll these may well have transparency. However image file on the desktop have generated thumbnails. However you can create a shortcut for an image png file and create a icon with a transparent background for the png file and change the shortcut's icon for the png file to the transparent ico file you created for it.
Also many Photoshop release ago an Adobe module created Thumbnails for image files in Windows File explorer and most likely system file dialog. Adobe stopped supporting that stating Microsoft changes how windows works.
Today I use FastPictureViewer Codec Package to generate image thumbnails for image files including RAW and PSD files in File Explorer and system file dialogs.
I don't use a Mac don't know what available for your Mac.

Transparent background for an accordion in Captivate 6

How do I remove the background and the shadow from an accordion on interactions? I need a transparent background for an accordion.
P.S.: I'm not interested in purchasing the version 7, I believe that such a basic thing as this must have been provided for version 6.

It is not possible, neither in Captivate 7. You take or leave the interactions as they are.

Turn off transparent background for reading in Adobe Reader X 10.1

Up until yesterday, I did not see a transparent background for all things in Adobe Reader X 10.1. This makes for very annoying reading. How do I turn off the transparent background? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If you're talking about the transparency grid, check the following user preference: Edit > Preferences > Page Display > Page Content and Information > Show transparency grid

Want to create an oval vignette in photoshop elements 10 with transparent background for printing w

I am fairly new to PSE and I want to create an oval vignette in Photoshop Elements 10 with transparent background for printing on white paper using MS Publisher. Using the white background on inverse selection makes a slight line impression and either it should have a defined "frame" or nothing.
Appreciate any guidance.

Try with the Elliptical marquee tool:
On the tool's option bar set feather 25-40 px (experiment)
Drag out the Ellipse to embrace the object
Go to Layer>new>layer via copy, or CTRL+J
Your selection should fade out as a vignette and be surrounded by transparency
Save this layer via File>save for web, select PNG-24, and tick "Transparency"

SWF movies Transparent BackGround for TV How?

I wanna run my SWF ADS Banner for TV with Transparent
Background, I am unable to do,
all Banners are runing with default white Background, How I
gonna solve that problem
I am using speacial video editing software: via builder ,
from here I transfer/export/republish the SWF file to file.via,
than from chracter genrater inscriber hardware that through
VB made program that display and complile the .via file to run on
TV screen, but in TV screen I wanna use trasparent BG of SWF,

You need to use a mask on the banner. This will make the rest
of the layers under the mask layer transparent.
So what you need to find is info on masking in flash, if the
ads move you will need to look for animated masking info.

How to make a transparent background for logo

I've tried creating a transparent backgound for a logo in Photoshop CS4 in numerous ways such as saving the file as a png and using the magic wand (text resolution was very poor) but neither worked. My logo has text and an image.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I saved the file as a png and the background was not transparent--that is, it retained the white background. Please see the attached image for the pgn settings. In additon to a low resolution web version, I need to save a high resolution version for print.

How can you make a psd gif have transparent background for use in photoshop ?

Hi Guys

a transparent background which i can then import into premier pro cc to produce a 2d animation
Thanks

every time i export the image lots of tif files pop up on my desktop is there a more simpler way of producing a file which i can drag and drop into premier pro as an animation with a transparent background ?

Rendering transparent background for website video

I have a comp for a website that I'm doing.
I have a transparent background and some fading in WHITE text with a light ray animated behind it.
I have followed instructions on how to render with the transparency intact (Quicktime, PNG, RGB+Alpha, Millions of Colors+). When I render it out and watch it in Quicktime, the light ray isn't correct and there's no transparency. Same thing with Final Cut Pro.
When I bring the footage back into AE, the transparency is there so I'm assuming that the transparency is there but QT & FC just don't play transparency files.
I need the transparency bc I want the text to reveal over a background picture I have in my webpage design.
Is there anyway to get this done right? I need the file to NOT be 300+ megabytes and when I drag the clip into COMPRESSOR to make it smaller, nothing is showing on the preview screen. I've been doing some research but haven't found anything to make it work correctly.
Can someone help me with this?
In the end, what I'm attempting to do is add the QT video into my iWeb page and have it play. I'm not a coder so I don't know how to make this happen any other way than making a QT movie and then adding it iWeb.
thanks in advance.

The only video format that supports transparency in a web browser is a flash player. That really doesn't fully support transparency either. The QuickTime player or any other video player will never ever support transparency in a web browser. Your project design is flawed from the outset. Another words you cannot do what you are trying to do using QuickTime. You will have to redesign for flash. If you redesign with flash, then you will not have a mobile compatible application.
I don't have much of an explanation of what you are trying to accomplish with your project so I can't give you more pointers than that. Point us to a website that has the features you are trying to implement on your webpage and maybe we can give you some ideas but After Effects is not where you should be looking.

Saving image with transparent background for web/Dreamweaver

How do I save a little image, so that the background stays transparent. I already have the image set up in Photoshop with a transparent background and have saved it as gif and png. When I import it into Dreamweaver the background stays white instead of transparent. What am I not doing right, since I read several posts saying that png and gif are the right formats to save in, if you want a transparent background?
Thanks for any help with this,
Anne

Well now that you have told me to save with some sort of an alpha channel, it works perfectly.
In CS5:
Select layer,"Composition,Make movie". Then navigate to "Output module" and choose an option that has "alpha channel" in the title.Choose a name for your project "Output to". I now use "lossless alpha".I don't know if that is the best one, but it seems to be working fine.
There is no "Quicktime" option in CS5 as in older versions of AE.
I was trying to save as a video in general or for photoshop and that just wasn't working out well.
I don't know what the "Frames to Layers import assistant" is that you mentioned though. I still tend to drag and drop, rather then import.
Thanks for your help.

Transparent background for Quick Look thumbnail

I am writing a Quick Look plug-in and would like to generate a thumbnail with a transparent background.
If I simply create a graphics context, flush it and exit, I see a solid white square for relevant file icons and Quick Look previews. I can find no way to clear the canvas to transparent - I can paint the contents of my thumbnail onto it just fine, but everything is composited to the white background.
For example, the following implementation(ish) of GenerateThumbnailForURL results in solid white squares for thumbnails:
CGContextRef context = QLThumbnailRequestCreateContext(
thumbnail,
CGSizeMake(512, 512), /* (For example) */
false, /* Changing to 'true' for vector context makes no difference */
NULL
QLThumbnailRequestFlushContext(thumbnail, context);
CFRelease(context);
return noErr;
Various combinations of CGContextClearRect with and without wrapping the call in CGContextBeginTransparencyLayer and CGContextEndTransparencyLayer, or trying to use CGContextFillRect having set a colour which is fully transparent, have all failed. The solid white background just shines through.
Am I going about this the wrong way (e.g. should I instead try to generate an image with a mask and send this to Quick Look with, say, QLThumbnailRequestSetImage ?) or is there some Magic Call that I should be using?
Thanks...

This isn't nearly as intuitive as I think this should be.
You're right, video is really hard.
Looking back over your thread, it's entirely possible the movies have transparency, you're just not looking at it properly, which is, granted, confusing. But alpha channels are not fundamental to video editing, they're special types of clips and you need to learn how to create and use them.
Motion is set by default to render to the Animation codec but may not be set to millions of colors +, the + sign is the alpha.
And, no, sorry, it can't be explained in a simple step-by-step post. There are fifty or a hundred pages on alphas in the Motion documentation. Start with the explanation of the Animation codec.
