- implemented 1251393 (rfe) - canvas color should ignore bkg alpha value
Shouldn't this be handled by just making the Canvas Alpha default to 255 (as opposed to the old 0) and still have it be configurable as opposed to the current /locking/ Alpha at 255? If we're not outside the spec, it seems like a step backwards to me. In general, the more flexibility the better. It also appears to me that the person that filed the RFE is unaware of how transparency in PNGs works (and is trying to work with it more like you would with a GIF). Setting the level of transparency for the canvas (and background) is definitely useful, as I know I've utilized it quite a bit in the past myself. Just my .02.
