Photoworks Background removed

Photoworks Background removed

Photoworks Background removed

(OP)
Is there any way to remove the background in photoworks. I know there is a selection in scenery which says background none, but if i render to file as a jpeg the background is black. I have a graphic designer looking for the parts with no background so that he can place it on a layer in his graphics package. Any suggestions?

RE: Photoworks Background removed

you have to have something in the back ground whether it's black or a different color.

If thats the case it is a major draw back of the software. It means that the graphic designer who is to use this will have to manually remove the colour from the background in Photoshop, which is less than ideal as it often removes the sharpness from the lines.

RE: Photoworks Background removed

Save your image as .PNG file.  This will make the background totally transparent, which I believe is what you're after.
