Hi there,

Is anybody able to explain why my map pins are not displaying transparently?

They are saved as .png in Photoshop with RGB and Transparency selected…

Thanks

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy, that would be a question for Photoshop.
If you are using one of the GD markers, does the transparency work correctly? If yes, then it must be an issue with your custom marker.

Thanks

Thanks Guust…

It was indeed a photoshop issue.

Despite showing as a transparent image, it wasn’t. The white/grey blocks that indicate transparency where in actual fact an image!

No cool because I bought the pin images as .png specifically as they were advertised as transparent .png files!

All sorted now.

Thanks

Jeremy
