Hi,

I’m trying to import a graphic into flash with a transparent background.  
I’ve got the graphic in photoshop with a transparent background and done save for web on a PNG 24 with the transparency box checked.

When I import to stage in Flash it still has a white background and its driving me nuts !

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks,

Kate
