PNG file displays white instead of clear

This is strange that png file that has an clear spot (alpha) would not display it in FCP 5.14. It shows white. If I erase portion of the file with an eraser in Photoshop then it will show normal clear part of the file. Here is the file if someone can give me the answer I will appreciate. Thanks,
Here is the file.
http://www.glivideo.com/Invitation.png

you might want to take a look at the clip properties for this PNG in FCP(select it in the browser window and then press cmd-9)
take a look under the format tab ... you're looking for the alpha info which may be have been interpreted as premultiplied white or some such. try changing it there. i'm, afraid i don't have FCP available to me at the moment or I'd test for you myself, but its probably something like that thats causing your trouble
hope it helps

Why don't .png files display in Safari for iPhone, iPad?

Why don't .png files display in Safari for iPhone, iPad?

James,
Thanks for your response. The image was on a site I maintain. I have already replaced the image with a jpg, which works fine. I believe I can duplicate the problem, if you think it is worth it. Gimme a few...
http://www.oaksbible.org/Contents/about2.html is the page with the png I restored to use.
http://www.oaksbible.org/Contents/about.html is the page with the replacement jpg
Just checked. The png still does not display on iPhone(5) or iPad(3). The image was also made by me in pixelmator and both (png and jpg) were exprted from pixelmator.
thanks again,

PDF file displays boxes instead of Japanese characters

Hi,
I am creating PDF files with a custom third-party set of sortware tools (Infragistics NetAdvantage).
This particular PDF document contains Japanese text using the Meiryo font and this font is embedded into the PDF file. It works fine in Windows (using the Adobe Acrobat Reader application), even on a machine where Meiryo is not installed.
But when viewed on the iPad, the text is displayed as a bunch of empty boxes.
Also, I'm not sure if it's related, but when viewing the same document on Window XP using FoxIt (instead of the Adobe Acrobat Reader), the text is not shown at all - there's just an empty space and not even boxes.
I would love to attach a sample PDF file here, but I don't see any way to do that... is there a way to attach files to these questions?

So the empty boxes are indeed shown by built-in preview, and Adobe Reader is also not able to render the content and it appears as blank.
After investigation , it turns out that system fonts on ipad does not have the required glyphs ( ~ symbol ) to render these characters. This is Apple’s bug and you may have to report this issue , indicating that it is not rendered in Preview / i-books on the ipad.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks,

PS saving blank PNG files, display issues

For the past few days, randomly, photoshop is saving PNGs as blank transparent files. A 640 x 1136px file is 60-70kb.
There are also some display issues that look like GPU issues but only happening with PS, no other programs.
New Document looks like this:

Png file displayed on web has very bad resolution

But on my Mac it is sharp. It was a pdf in Acrobat "Saved as..." a png. Very frustrating problem begs for solution. Thanks in advance.

You've identified that Acrobat's export of the image to PNG was spot on ("... on my Mac it is sharp.").
Some possible sources of the web based image being of "bad resolution" present themselves.
--| Some web based image hosting services provide uploaders that actually downsample an image.
This is to reduce the image file's size and results in destructive remove of pixels. File size is smaller and resoultion can/does take a hit.
--| There may be an issue related to the brower used. You could always install and try out other browsers to check this.
--| You local machine may have a failing graphics card.
There may be other issues. A web search might turn up some leads.
Regardless, neither Acrobat nor Adobe Reader are web browsers and neither are "image viewers" for image file formats such as PNG.
Be well...

Every png file I have suddenly has text that cannot be edited

Hi everyone, every PNG file has suddenly lost the ability to edit text, I can highlight the text box, but to actually select box (or any item) I have to click and then drag it. I can select the the box and change font, size etc from the properties bar but i cannot select it so I can change the actual copy and wording, usually i would just double click on the text and it highlights it.
I made a new text box where I can write text, but when iI click off the text, I can not click back on to change the wording
This in CS6 which I recently downloaded, I tried opening the files in an old Fireworks and it has the same problem
It is every single png file I have from the last few years
I am using a Macbook
The only thing I thought It could be is I changed the settings for PNG files in that instead of opening in Preview they open in Fireworks, since then this has happened
Thanks in advance
Darren

Text selection issues have been seen when you are running third-party applications like SoundCloud / Spotify / Grooveshark Desktop Helper or Radium. If you are running any of them, please close them and relaunch Fireworks. This might resolve the issue.

Png files referenced in css not displaying in Chrome & Firefox after after PUT

I'm new to dreamweaver but I've got a techy / software background so feel free to speak geek.
I've been tasked to create a simple splash screen for an existing intrenal website for my company.
I've been able to put page together in DW and sucessfully preview in Chrome, Firefox, & IE.

Here's a look at the html & css for the page. Any recommendations on how I could code this better or fix the problem? Your help will be very much appreciated.

CSS for images coded on the Web page itself is pathed relative to that Web page. CSS for images used by the external CSS file is pathed relative to the CSS file location.
If this is the link to the css file from the Web page... go to "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder and get the "oneColFixCtrHdr.css"
<link href="/CognosSplashScreen/oneColFixCtrHdr.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
.... and you don't need the leading "/" by the way.
then relative to that css file, which is already in the "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder, the path to the "HeaderBubbles_02.png" is just
background-image: url(HeaderBubbles_02.png);
not:
background-image: url(/CognosSplashScreen/HeaderBubbles_02.png);
and so forth for other image paths.

PNG files no longer display correctly...PLEASE HELP!

Hi there, I just recently upgraded to Final Cut Studio 2. I have a project that I was working on prior to the upgrade and now making some changes in DVD Studio Pro 4.2.0. In my menus I am using a motion menu as the background and a PNG file created in Photoshop with transparent layers set as a Drop Zone so that the menu background can still be seen.
These PNG files are no longer displaying correctly. It's really hard to explain except to say that anything that was transparent is now displaying a solid white. I have trashed the prefs and restarted with no improvement.
Does anyone have any ideas? I was just going to make a small change for the client and now the whole project is not right.
Many thanks, Simon.

Hi:
In DVDSP preferences, under Menu encoding settings change it from hardware based to software based or vice versa depending on what do you have now selected. Build again and check if it's solved.
Hope that helps !

Flattened png. files only render in black and white

Hi,
I have been working with fireworks on a daily basis for over
a year now, and I have never come across this problem. I think it's
either a setting, or I have some sort of bug. But here's whats
going on: I design websites and so I use lots of .png files
(flattened of course) Recently all of flattened png files are
rendering only in black and white. By that I mean I save them in
color, and then when I save them they turn black and white, and I
can only tell this once I reopen them. Even if I go into the
options section when you are saving a doc, and I can choose the
format, and then underneath that the palette, the palette itself is
somehow always set to grayscale, and so I will change it to web
adaptive which is my usual setting. Has anyone had this problem
before. The only way around it that I have found is by first saving
my project as a jpg, and then going back into fireworks and then
saving it as a flattened png.

When installing the new cartridges, did you get the message "Original HP cartridges have been installed"?
Can you check the ink levels and actually see the been color displayed?

PNG files stored in Aperture have a white BG in Keynote

I have a bunch of png files with 0% opacity on the background. When I import into Keynote via the library (using the share previews setting in Aperture) they have a white background where it should be clear. If I import the file directly form the Finder it is fine.

This is because the iLife Media Browser uses the JPEG previews generated by Aperture and not the actual file. JPEG doesn't support transparency, and therein lies the problem.
Images with transparency will have to be brought in via the finder. At least, I know no other way.

jpg and pdf formats don't support transparency. You need to use a format such as tif, png or psd that does.

I have an png file that has images how do i display the seperately?

i have an png file that has images how do i display the seperately?
how do i clip the image to an object and use that object to display on an canvas ?

The MIDP API documentation says this of the paint()
method in Canvas class:
Operations on this graphics object after the paint()
call returns are undefined. Thus, the application must
not cache this Graphics object for later use or use by
another thread. It must only be used within the
scope of this method.
The Drawer.paint() operations are NOT executed after the Canvas.paint() but within !
So as long as Drawer.paint() does not start a separate thread (which is not the case here), it NO problem :)
However, you CAN cache the Graphics object, but then you should have some logics like this
if(cachedGfx != currentGfx) {
cachedGfx = currentGfx;

PNG files not displaying - is this a problem in BC / Flexslider2 issue slider too big

Hi,
I have uploaded a site dmrural.leapfrogdesign.com.au/index.html and I noticed my png files are not displaying. Is there a problem with using png files on BC?
Also I know this is not BC related but I would really appreciate if if someone could tell me how to reduce the size of my flexslider (i am using bootstrap 2.3.2) - it's my first site in bootstrap.
Thanks,
Tammy

They work for me. For example I see the logo on the homepage
http://dmrural.leapfrogdesign.com.au/img/logo.png
As for the slider images size you can use something like this:
.slides {
max-width: 50%;
