Hi there,

i got a really troubling problem with GG. I want to make my character set into a background. Unfortunatly i cant make it transparent. So the selection is white or mangenta. I tried a lot. Changing i properties, select in selection. One time i got it saved it and the background was white again.

I had that problem a lot before also, one-two time it worked. Mostly it havent worked its frustrating.

One step I always forget is opening up the Properties of the frame you're on (even if you're not working on an animation) and making sure you have Transparency checkmarked in there.

Also, maybe check under File -> Properties while the file is open and uncheck "Disable Transparency of Bottom Layer"

Sometimes, if I can't figure it out, I just end up opening the file in Photoshop or something and deleting the background colour, cause transparency in GraphicsGale is just too mysterious...
