There are two colors in the document properties. The one you changed to blue is for previewing in inkscape, the other one which is right next to it is the background color for export, which is set to 0 alpha by default.

Hi All,

How do I change the background.  I went into
properties and changed it to light blue,
but when I exported as png, I got a checker
board background.

What did I do wrong?


Many thanks,
