Publish Project with Transparent Background?

Is there any ways to publish with a Transparent background on your project? I have looked in the Master Slide area and can not find any way to do a transparent background it always wants something there. Let me know if this can not be done. thanks

Too bad too, because many versions ago, we could do it! It required a bit of finagling, but it was possible.

Export project with Transparent Background

I need to export a Motion project with no solid color background and then import the .MOV into FCP to layer on top of preexisting footage. In project properties I have the transparent checked, but it still exports with a black background. Anyone know of a solution for this?

I cannot get a choice to set the background as transparent. I click edit>project properties and then the background color only offers colors, transparent is never a choice. I have set the color to black and then moved the slider and I have exported it on 100% and 0% and I still get the same results. I am exporting as an lossless+alpha and under the options I have selected a quicktime movie as the Kind and Animation as the Compressor. I have tried every possible combination and cannot get the project to export with a transparent background and like I said when I go into project properties there is no option for a transparent background, only colors.

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"

Hi
I am having problems in publishing a file done in Flash- a
logo spinning,
and I want the background to be transparent. Under Publish
Settings, I have
the following:
ALPHA: Alpha-transparent
Layer: Auto
And checked the Flatten (Make self-contained).
However when I import the file into another application-
Apple�s Motion, I
get a white background- which is what I have originally. Am I
doing
something wrong?
I even check the track in QT Pro and set the Movie Properties
but it is not
becoming transparent. I appreciate any tips on it.
Thank you.
Kelvin

I've never gotten it to work either. I usually set the
background to something not used in the animation, like bright
green, and then composite the video. I've never used Motion, so I
don't know if this is possible.

With what program are you working and with what version of the program and on what computer operating system?
I suspect that you are working with some version of Photoshop Elements. If that is correct, then be advised that some how
your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing) instead of the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum (photo editing).
If Photoshop Elements question, then please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator
here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
Photoshop Elements
Thought....if are creating an image on a transparent background in Photoshop Elements Windows for a Premiere Elements Windows project, then you Save As png or psd.
Please clarify if I have misinterpreted your question.
Thank you.

Image with transparent background als foreground of a button

I'd like to build an app with buttons using the phone's accent Color as Background and an Image with transparent Background as foreground of the button. It should look like the tiles on the start screen of WP8.1.
The following code doesn't work (no foreground appears)
<Button x:Name="myButton" Background="{ThemeResource PhoneAccentBrush}">
<Button.Foreground>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/Assets/myImage.png"/>
<Button.Foreground>
</Button>
Are there any ideas?
Thanks
Martin

Hi mfv_technet,
The Foreground property is used to get or set a brush that describes the foreground color. So we can not bind the Foreground to a image,
if I do not misunderstand you, in my mind if we want to set the button look like the tiles on the start screen of WP8.1, maybe you can try to refer to the following xaml:
<Button x:Name="myButton" Foreground="Red" Background="{ThemeResource PhoneAccentBrush}" Margin="116,136,0,363" Width="195" Height="141">
<Button.Content>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<Image Source="/Assets/myImage.png" Width="80" Height="80"></Image>
<TextBlock Text="Button"></TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
</Button.Content>
</Button>
The result:
If I have misunderstood you, please feel free to let me know.

Using animated gifs with transparent background.

Hi guys,
Keynotes 6.2.
I have been onto apple support with this problem.
I add a transparent animated gif to my project.
It show as a movie correctly in the presentation but when exported as quicktime or HTML the movies fail.
We eventually found out that quicktime does not support animated gifs. ( support.apple.com/kb/ht3775 )
So I exported the animation onto a folder with all the frames separately and brought them into final cut pro.
I then followed these tutorials on how to export with transparent background. ( http://provideocoalition.com/mspencer/video/fcp-x-and-alpha-channels and http://www.larryjordan.biz/fcp-export-transparency ).
I now have a quicktime movie that if I bring back into Final Cut Pro it has a transparent background.
However when I bring into keynotes it still has a black background. (presumably keynotes does not recognise the Apple Prores 444).
Any ideas how I can achieve what I need. ?
I am using a program called crazytalk animator and can output with transparent background. Animated Gif or a series of image stills BMP, JPEG, TGA or PNG.
Cheers
SteveW

This has been an ongoing issue for me since I switched from Powerpoint to Keynote. Most of the animated gifs with transparent backgrounds that I used with Powerpoint are no longer transparent in Keynote. You may want to search for those earlier threads on this topic...
To summarize: I've had to open up my animated gifs in After Effects and use the Color Key effect to restore transparency, with mixed success.
Good luck!

Flash exe with transparent background

Hi,
   Is there a way to project an EXE with transparent background from flash (only using flash).
If not only flash,
      then what else should I use??
As I know there are softwares like NorthCode, Zinc, etc., But all of them affects the script in some way like "fscommand("quit");, loadMovie();" does not seem working.
What I exactly need is:
1) Flash projector (EXE as well as APP) with transparent background
2) I need to loadMovie (call exteranl swfs) into the main projector file.
      "note:The external swfs are FlashPaper files, so I should I have access to API, so that I could resize them, edit UI as I want."
Thanks in Advance.

from "Render and export a composition as an FLV or F4V file":
"To include the alpha channel in the FLV output, use the On2 VP6 codec and select Encode Alpha Channel in the Video tab of the export settings dialog box."

HT4641 Importing graphics with with transparent backgrounds such as .psd or .eps

I want to use this for an art project for my sons class. Can I import .psd files with transparent backgrounds as per Word, to retain the clear cut shape/opacity of background. Or can I import .eps illustrator files with transparent backgrounds? Thanks.

If you need transparency - as I stated - you need to convert the image to GIF. PSD is a layered graphic workspace file specifically for PhotoShop; EPS can be read by more applications, but is still basically a graphic print format. It might serve your customer needs, but wouldn't be the format I would recommend for general distribution. Typically you wouldn't embed EPS in another file, it would be the container for the print ready document (and the concern for transparency would be somewhat moot).
However, I'm not familiar with the intimate details of your project or customer needs, so take that for what its worth.

Export locally png with transparent background

Is it possible to use Ps touch to remove the background from jpeg images and export them locally as png with transparent background (reducing the size of the picture)? I would need to use this feature to create more keynotetouch-friendly images.

Yes. That's possible. You can export a PSTouch project as png to the Camera Roll....and there are other channels as well where this is possible, like "Share By E-mail" , "Send to iTunes" etc.
Those options are accesible via the Share menu (see attached screenshot) as part of the PSTouch project organizer

Export with Transparent Background

I do realize this has been asked again and again. Just making a reality check. I created a lower third. Time and time again the import into Final Cut Pro was on a solid black background instead of a transparency.
I followed every post and followed the directions - with no success.
Finally I exported my Motion lower third as a Template. The effect appears as a Generator in Final Cut. When I use the created Generator in my timeline the lower third has a proper transparency and works properly.
Is that really the only way to import a Motion graphic with transparent background?? Yes, I did try creating a Movie in ProRes 4444, my project does have a transparent background selected, etc. I feel as if I am missing something.

Much appreciated :-)
I purchased the lower third from Videohive. It has the basic graphic but lacks titles. While I was watching Motion tuturials, I thought I would customize the lower third with a fancy text animation.
I tried a few experiments based on what you said. I see now.
So it appears that even though my proxy media lacks the alpha channel and does not display with a transparency, the moment I switch FCP to view Optimized/Original media, the transparency works correctly.
So I assume I can still use proxy media (if needed) and ignore the lack of transparency until my final render. As long as I am exporting from Motion using ProRes 4444 it should work correctly.
Does that reasoning make sense?
Looking at many posts across the internet, I think this is the very issue that has tripped up many people.
Thank you for your helpful comment. I was going nuts trying to figure it out.

Animated gif with transparent background

When I import in Keynote an animated gif with transparent background. The background becomes white. I did the following tests:
If I extract a single image from the animated gif and import it in keynote the background is actually transparent but it becomes white when I import the whole gif.
I also checked with other applications (NeoOffice) and the animated gif does come out with a transparent background.

Creating animations with transparent backgrounds?

I'm running into some problems when using After Effects to create animations with transparent backgrounds for Keynote...
I use animated gifs and short quicktime movies with uniform backgrounds as source files, use color keying to take out the backgrounds, preview them to see if they look OK, render the results as RGB+alpha, and... they don't show up as transparent in Keynote. They work in Powerpoint, however. I've tried outputting as .mov, as .gif, as premultiplied vs straight alpha... no joy. Can someone explain (or point me to an explanation) of how Keynote differs from other programs in its handling of transparency? What am I missing?

Using a TYPE_INT_ARGB BufferedImage worked beautifully. I had played around with Image for hours, but it never occurred to me that BufferedImage would be needed. :)
many, many thanks,
Steven

How do I transfer a .psd file to illustrator that can then be placed in Muse as a .svg with transparent background?

I just wrote all this up in another thread. I did not realize at the time that the last post was in 2014, so I'm giving it a go here.
I am currently trying to create an .svg using Photoshop .psd file (with layers in tact). I'm new to these products so it may be obvious to others that the above intention was to eventually place the .svg in some sort of website creation software such as Muse. Which is precisely what I am attempting. However, I am getting a white background once I place or copy and paste into Muse. My starting .psd has a transparent background without any hidden layers causing this problem. To test this I placed the .psd file into Muse and it still has a transparent background. However when opening or placing this file into illustrator, it picks up a white background. If I do exactly as described above, I still get the same result. So far I have tried:
1) Simple copy and paste from Photoshop .svg to illustrator to Muse. Result - white background.
2) Placing the .psd in illustrator, then placing the .svg file in muse. Result - white background.
4) I have also tried the every combination of 1 and 2. - Result - white background.
3) I have now created a path in Photoshop from the text layer to yet again attempt the above methods. Result - white background.
I'm including an image of the object I am trying to place with transparent background, but I have both a flattened rasterized version, a version complete with layers and a third (.svg) with the corresponding objects. I am completely new to Illustrator as of today so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Link to .psd file "Welcome text"

I was having some difficulties getting the correct dimensions of one of my objects, I eventually solved this problem without using svg. It was pretty simple when I stopped trying to over complicate things. I just linked the object to a near by object in photoshop, merged and placed it all as one. It looks great now. Thanks for your reply. You are correct, SVG was not the answer.

I placed a psd file with transparent background on another layer in my InDesign document. The layer below has a color (RGB). When the psd file is placed it changes the color on the layer below. I've tried other psd files thinking something is wrong with my file, but get the same result. I have tried for days to figure this out. Can anyone help me?

Wow, thank you! That was fast. I googled that question to death and even bought (another) book on CS5 and never saw that answer. Thank you so much. You made a very good ending to my day! I'd buy you a beer if I could!!
