Make Transparent - Bitmaps

In Flexi, you can select a color in a Bitmap and convert all instances of that color to a transparent background. This is especially useful with Bitmap with a white background that you want to be transparent.

• Select the bitmap.
• From the Bitmap menu, select Make Transparent. OR
• From the Bitmap Toolbar, select Make Transparent.
     
  
  • The Magic Wand Options tab appears in DesignCentral.
    

• Move the wand over the bitmap and click on the color you want to make transparent. For multiple transparent colors, hold Shift while clicking additional colors.
  
• To select all instances of the color in the bitmap, click Select Similar in DesignCentral.
• Click Apply.

If you are getting unwanted outlines around your bitmap elements, increase the Tolerance setting in DesignCentral.

To remove the transparency

• Select the bitmap.
• Select the Bitmap tab in DesignCentral.
  
• Click Remove Transparency.

The Remove Transparency button only appears when a transparent bitmap is selected.
