Paint.NET :: Get Transparent Background In A Selection?

Jan 29, 2011

I just downloaded paint.net, it looks like it will be a big upgrade from PC Paint, which I currently use. There's one important feature in PC Paint that I can't seem to locate, though: declaring the background of a selected area to be transparent. In sequence, it looks like this:

I use this function quite a bit, and I figure if it's in PC Paint, that it would certainly be in paint.net - I just can't find the spot.

Paint.NET :: Force Pasted Selection To Not Overwrite Transparent Sections?

Jun 9, 2012

I'm trying to make an image with 2 layers: one is a circle that I'm using as a background (and everything outside the circle is transparent) and the other is a selection that I've copied that I want to paste over the background. Is there a way to make it such that the selection I'm pasting will only cover the background image and if any parts of the selection that I'm pasting go outside the background image into the transparent parts of the image that the transparent section will remain transparent?

I've been doing it an ad hoc way of just erasing parts of the layer that I'm using to paste and checking for transparency underneath but that's pretty time consuming. I assume there's a better way?

Also, vice versa: is there a way so that if I have a selection that has transparent sections that I paste over a background, that the selection I'm pasting will have it's transparent sections not overwrite none transparent sections of the background? I mean, outside of using magic wand to select everything except the transparent sections and just pasting the parts I selected using magic wand over.

Paint.NET :: Background Is Transparent

Jan 25, 2013

Choose the magic wand click the area that you want transparent.Choose cut and it is turned transparent.This is limited by whether the central image has the same color in it. It will be changed also.You may have to click on each background area till all the background is transparent. Do one area at a time.

Paint Shop Pro :: X3 - Background Transparent

Nov 26, 2013

Paint shop pro x3 Whoa am I out of date. But maybe there is still hope before I get X6. I am trying to make a background transparent so that when I insert it onto a presentations slide, the item, a Christmas tree, has no background other than what is the background of the slide. I used the background removal process, asked for 0 opacity on the background and still when I save, or paste, it is in a rectangular white box.

I'm missing something simple, I know it. But thats been my day.

How do I essentially make it a stand alone little thing with no background?

Paint.NET :: Change Transparent Background - Checkerboard Pattern

Feb 2, 2014

Currently working on a project that involves... well, white. And you know how it goes.

On a transparent background, the checkerboard pattern is kind of hard to work with. The project, to be exact, are sprites for a game I'm developing, and the 32x32 really limits what I can work with.
 
EDIT: I just need it to be a different color. Black or grey would work fine.
