I use PDF as well, there you can not save a background-color or something like that. This should be better an option in QGIS to "set the colors of the black recangles" ;-) thanks all. Am 01.10.2021 um 23:19 schrieb Nicolas Cadieux: Hi, It's quite simple, you just need to set the nodata

Hi, I usually do a brief adjustment on pixel values prior to georeferencing, to make sure that no pixel has the value I need to assign to nodata. Depending on the source dataset, I usually try to replace the zeros with ones, and reserve the zero for nodata. El vie, 1 de oct. de 2021 a la(s)

Hi, It's quite simple, you just need to set the nodata value (what you call the background-color) in the original file and then save it.  The complication is that this requires that the datatype for the file accepts the no data value. This part is harder to figure out for your not used to

Hi, Start by setting the nodata value in the input raster. (raster/conversion/translate/Assign a specific nodata value to output bands).  Make sure you select a data type that allows your nodata value.  For example, if you select Byte - Eight bit unsigned integer, and a no data value of

I just loaded an unreferenced png with black content into qgis, then set the nodata value to 9, then did a fake georeference with arbitrary coordinates, and the result seemed to be rotated without any background pixels. Using 3.20 on Windows. The geoereferencer has a checkbox for setting

When georeferencing, aren't the areas outside the original image, eg, the "triangles" resulting from rotation, treated as no data? Wouldn't this issue be resolved by setting the no data value to something other than black? Just guessing here, obviously.

I think one of us is on the wrong track with what is to be achieved. I don't want to manipulate the image itself, just the background at the moment when the raster image (or raster pdf) is converted to a TIF and georeferenced. if the rectangle contains black text, as described, this would also

You can translate pixel values with the raster calculator (available under the raster menu). Black pixels will have a value of 0,0,0 on RGB bands and red pixels would have a value of 255,0,0 so it's just a matter of changing the values accordingly on those bands. The raster calculator will

Thanks for answering, but I think this is not the way I want to go ... Or, I do not have written detailed. I have a raster image e.g. a white rectangle, after setting the points, QGIS rotats this image, let's say, by 45 degrees. The corners of the imported image are now black triangles. I do

There's not really any way for a GIS system to automatically differentiate between black background pixels and black data pixels. QGIS supports users setting custom pixel values to render as transparent pixels, but it's left up to users to ensure that their data and background values are

Hi, how to change the backgroundcolor of a georeferenzed raster image? When a raster image is rotated by qgis after setting all points the backgroundcolor is black RGB(0,0,0). Set black to transparent is difficult when there is black text. regards
