Hi Paul,
I just took one of my old transparent .png images that I used
to use a couple of years ago and imported it as a control into an
LC 8.1.3 stack. It worked just fine.
I think I might have created it with “Graphic Converter” for Mac.
If you put one of your images into a “DropBox” account
NOTE: I am using LC 6.7.11 for an update to a legacy app.
I was trying to import (as a control) a transparent PNG (i.e. the
"white" parts allow whatever is underneath to show through) and instead
of transparancy, I get the slashed background lines transparent PNG are
often displayed with. Thinking
Yes, I also have seen this sometimes when special kinds of alphachannel

on mouseUp
set the paintcompression to RLE
if there is
Hi Paul,
I’ve used .png images with transparencies with no problems before.
It almost sounds like the alpha-channel information is getting lost

Good luck tracking it down!

I use transparent PNG's all over my app and do not have that issue. It may be
the PNG is protected in some way. I can send you one of my PNG's to test with
to see if you get the same problem with them.
