You need to set the background of the JSVGCanvas to something other than white. I suggest transparent black: // Make sure that the canvas isn't opaque. + svgCanvas.setBackground(new Color(0,0,0,0)); svgCanvas.setOpaque( false ); System.out.println( "isOpaque: " + svgCanvas.isOpaque() ); --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
