How to turn on transparent background as default

I keep getting a white background for all new images, when what I need is that they be transparent. I don't see this as a preference anywhere. Am I just missing it?
This is CS5.

Ah -- Thanks

  • 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

  • How to Export with Transparent Background

    I have created a logo in Freehand 10, and I need to export it
    as an EPS with a transparent background to place in an InDesign
    document. How do I export the file with a transparent background?
    Thanks!

    > Please excuse my lack of experience, but can you please
    explain what you mean
    > by "without screen image"?
    In general contents of eps files (encapsulated postscript)
    cannot be viewed with layout programs and alike. Therefore a screen
    image must be included for placing. When the document is printed to
    a postscript printer or exported as pdf the screen image is omitted
    and the postscript code is used. In this case it is not 'What you
    see is what you get' but "What you get is what you can't see'.
    In Windows the screen image has always been a opaque bitmap
    image but in mac screen image can be 'clipped'. In both platforms,
    however, the postscript output is the same i.e. without background.

    I'm not sure if InDesign CS2 can show contents of eps files,
    both Mac and Windows. I just tried exporting eps and ai from
    FreeHand and they worked well in Windows InDesign CS3.
    Usually eps file without screen image appear as white box and
    all the images as grey boxes if Disply Performance is set to Fast
    Disply in InDesign. So check InDesign display settings.
    Also try to export eps with a screen image.
    If the logo is simple with just outline objects it can be
    copypasted into InDesign as well. In FreeHand 'copy special' and
    select the clipboard format.

  • How to set up transparent background in kdestopk?

    My goal is to put four different background image (wallpapers) on each face of my Compiz-Fusion cube.
    However, the Compiz wiki says that if kdesktop draws background already, it will cover Compiz's backgrounds.
    Then, I noticed that kdemod has this http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.ph … tent=59864
    and it is supposed to give me transparent background.
    I added BackgroundOpacity=0 in ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc
    But nothing changed.
    Can some one give a little help?
    Thanks

    Like a picture behind the apps on the home screen? I think that is the wallpaper. That isn't supported on the 3rd gen. iPod touch. Only the 4th. Sorry.

  • How to have a transparent background after saving as a jpeg?

    Hi guys!
    I designed this logo for a couple that are starting their own business. Problem is they never told me that they wanted to print the logo into T-shirt that are a Daisy yellow color. As of now we are trying to find the HTML code for the yellow in the shirts so I can match the background of the logo to the shirt because the problem they are having is that when they print the logo on the shirt it comes out squared and the logo in the middle. The logo its self its oval shaped. As an alternative and probably easier way to solve the problem I'm trying to send them just the logo shape but I've trimmed the excess background to a point where it cannot be trimmed anymore and there still is a white background to it, Probably my explanation its a bit confusing but ultimately I'm trying just to send them the logo with no white background at all. I need help with that. How to save the file and send it so they can open it still with no background color?
    Please help me ASAP!!!
    THANKS

    JPG files are not compatible with transparency.  You need to save as GIF or PNG, but make sure the unwanted area shows as the checkerboard in Photoshop before saving.
    It is always a good idea to ask the printer what works best for them.  I suspect there would be specific requirements for printing on material, but we don't know if this going to be screen print, or iron on or what. 

  • How can I make Transparent background?

    I want make some part of JFrame as Transparent so that I can see through.
    How can I do this? any example?

    This is a bug that I personally reported and had verified. Basically, you can modify the color of GUI components' backgrounds, right? Well, the Color object supports transparency. However, modifying this simply doesn't work (I actually tried it two ways). At any rate, what I observed was that it DID let me do transparency, but there were all kinds of repaint problems. So when 1.4 came out, I thought they might have fixed it. NOPE! They just threw out the implementation, at least for now. Now when I run in 1.4, I don't see ANY transparency AT ALL!

  • How can I have transparent background on b/w drawing?

    I have many technical drawings saved as tiff files that need the outer background transparent while maintaining the white fill within the drawings.  I need this so that I can place the drawings within other documents created in both ID CS4 and AI CS4.  Any idea how I can achieve this?
    Thanks,
    Mel

    I would say your best bet is to use the wand tool, (make sure Contiguous + Anti-alias are both checked) and select the area around the outside of the drawing.. then use the [ Refine Edge... ] button near the checkboxes, and fine-tune the edge settings, and finally, delete the outside area.  Make sure the layer that you're working with is not a background layer, and if it is, right click the background layer and select "layer from background."
    Hope that helps!

  • Spherical Photo Gallery how to make a transparent background

    http://www.flashandmath.com/flashcs4/spheregallery/index.html
    http://www.flashandmath.com/flashcs4/spheregallery/spherical_gallery.zip
    I am pretty new to the world of flash, a flash newbie.
    Please check link above my question is related to making this sphere gallery.
    I am trying to make the background transparent, and i can , when i make it transparent
    the navigation for the sphere doesnt let me navigate throught the pictures.
    If you look at the code i made it transparent by removing the drawboard function or the fills in the function.
    As i said when i do this the navigation seems non functional.
    if download link does not work try the other at the top.

    Hi,
    Since you had written event handlers on 'board' and board is transparent (without drawBoard function), there will be no events triggered and navigation is not possible. Workaround is to create board with fill = minimum alpha value (0.01).
    board.graphics.beginFill(0x0, 0.01);
    Let me know if you need more information.

  • 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 to make a transparent background

    I have a design and i need the background to be transparent, as it is going onto a website asap.
    I use Photoshop CS5 (64 bit).
    thank you

    Keep in mind that PNG-24 format is the only web-compatible format that offers partial transparency, which means that edges of things can be made to look smooth, not jaggy as with GIF in the general case, and you can do special effects like drop shadows.
    Here's an example:  http://Noel.ProDigitalSoftware.com/temp/TransparencyTest/TransparencyTest.html

  • How to turn off transparancy on lock screen to not blur out the wallpaper but not have black screen? (enhanced contrast)

    With the new iOS7 update, on the lockscreen when you get a notification ex) text message, the wallpaper will go blurred until either you open it or swpe down to hide it. I find this frustrating as what does having a lockscreen wallpaper do anymore? I would like to have an option to disable the blur for the lockscreen so I can always see my wallpaper.

    if your only issue is with notifications (not sure about texts), this seems like the easiest to fix, in terms of blurred screen; because you DO NOT have to have your notifications display on the lockscreen. You SHOULD be able to have them display in the notifications center swipe down; but so long as they don't have to display on the lockscreen there should be no reason for the iOS to blur the background.
    there IS an option to remove an app TOTALLY from notifications, if necessary.
    so maybe the only question is: what is more important: your notifications showing up on the lockscreen or your lockscreen image.
    to me, i don't care where my notifications display. certainly don't need them on my lockscreen.
    my main blur issue is NOT with notifications; but with audio playback; because iOS thinks it has to display the audio controls on the lockscreen, which blurs the wallpaper. But, when I hit PAUSE, I can get the screen to go back to normal (using by toggling screen ON/OFF). hopefully there is a way to remove that from displaying on the lockscreen, since the control center has the same audio controls and is also accessible from the lockscreen.
    hope this helps.

  • Unable to open a new page  with transparent background.

    I must have hit something (or maybe several things), because suddenly I can't open a new page in Photoshop (CS2). I can see it's picking up  the white background color (from the lower left corner of the tool menu), but I can't figure out how to change it. Also  noticed that  my camera is suddenly automatically savings  pix  as jpgs (instead of tiffs) which I think I read somewhere prevents removing the white background color . . . but even if I start by trying to create an empty transparent background and  pasting my graphic into it (which is what I usually do), it still loads as a white one.
    After fighting with the software for the past 2 hours, maybe I'm just too confused to see the obvious. I  do know how to get a transparent background  when all is running smoothly. (Have been doing it for years, without running into problems.) It's figurng out what the problem is tonight that has  me running in circles. The answer probably is staring me in the face, but  if it is, I can't see it. I need  help . . . PLEASE!

    Yes. When I select  all and edit/clear  the screen stays white.
    Unfortuantely, it alsois not allowing me to grab a screen shot. I've tried both keystrokes and "Grab" (in  Application Utilities.)
    But the  image in the layers panel is easy to describe.
    1) When I open a new  PS document and click on transparent, the icon is a small rectangle with a double line border that has a white space midway on each side.
    Whether it is active or hidden, the  box next to it just says "layer 1" (i.e., not background.
    In this mode, the Transparency & Gamut settings  show the following:
    Grid Size    Medium
    Grid Colors  Light
    Below that are 2 empty boxes
    In the bottom section, Gamut Warning shows a darkened out  Square. A both ends of the Opacity bar (1% and 100%) it remains unchanged.
    When I add an image, it does not add a layer. The icon just changes to a thumbnail of the image.
    If I don't change them, the  Transparency  & Gamut  pane remains unchanged.
      point, I'm running out of time, so would switch to  that other Adobe  Application  (with fewer options and tools, which came on the same disk as another Adobe  graphic program ), but can't search for  it on my computer because I don't remember it's name.  But since it's not in the application folder, if it was not compatible with  System 10, I may have removed it. By any chance do you know which  application I'm referring to?
