Paint_boy Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 How come when I copy an image with any transparency and paste it PDN the transparent part becomes black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Man Dan Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Yeah, it happens alls the time. Copying a PNG from IE7 or a GTK+ environment (Firefox, The GIMP, et cetera) yields a black solid background, while copying from Opera yields a white solid background. I believe it's a clipboard inadequacy, as the same thing happens regardless of the graphics program I use.

Paint_boy Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 @david.atwell I guess it's too late, but I use PNG's @Crazy Dan Man Thanks. Do you think transparency will ever be allowed in clipboards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Man Dan Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 The clipboard is a Windows thing, not something under Paint.NET's control. Even PhotoShop falls prey to the clipboard's inadequacies (same black background), so I don't think this will be "fixed" on Rick's end. For now, you'll just have to save any PNGs to your computer and open them in PDN to preserve their transparency.
