looking for answer to art / tech related question about exporting an image w/o white

[jarcho]

I am working in ArtRage6 on a Mac. I have created a character and tried to export it without the white background. I want to place it in another painting. I've tried exporting it as a ptg, PNG, Jpeg, Tiff and tried to also put it into photoshop to eliminate the background but can't seem to get rid of that white background. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Jarco,

You need a 'cell' canvas layer that is transparent. Here is where you find it. View/Canvas Settings/Canvas Presets/Special/Cell Remember to export as .png.

Another opportunity could be to drag the Opacity-Slider of the Canvas Settings to zero. But even this will only work if you export your image as a PNG, because it is the only available export-data-format in ArtRage that supports transparency.
