How do you get Inkscape to display the canvas so that it looks transparent with checkerboards as in this picture http://www.inkscape.org/screenshots/gallery/inkscape-0.45-depthoffield.png

I don't see any options for setting the canvas to a checkerboard either. Hmm. Maybe that was done as part of the png export? Interesting question. The canvas is set to transparent by default, but you have to set a colour as well (default is white).
