Thank you Rich, but I did use those exact steps. The issue is that even though the "square" is transparent, it is still there. When I then open the rounded .png file in Meshcam (the software I am using for the next step in my process) it is displayed with the square again. -- Huntleybill (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
