PNG problems

[ARDriver]

Hello, When saving a svg to a png the file does not have a transparent background. any help would be greatly appreciated. Also effects like blur do not seem to work for png's. Thanks

Welcome to the forum!

The proper way to get a PNG with transparency is to use File menu > Export PNG.

Pay attention to the 4 buttons at the top of that dialog, and choose the appropriate area.  It sounds like that would probably be Page, but I don't have enough info to be sure.  Just ask, if you aren't sure

Good deal.  You're welcome!
