Stage Alpha

The alpha check box on the Stage has been removed. Using the most updated version of Adobe Animate and can no longer find it.

 

 

Fairly new to using animate but the last time I used it, the option was there. Now isn't. Have tried clicking around to find if there is perhaps another way but can't fi nd a solution. This is annoying me lol could someone please help.

 

Hopefully an easy and simple solution that I have not tried.

    One of your files is AS3 and the other one Canvas. They are different file types with different properties.

    Had you shown full screenshots including the filename, this would have been apparent.

    I don't understand but I opened up an older file which had the alpha stage option and then created a new project file. The stage then had the alpha option.

     

     

    Kind of solved the issue but I'd like to know why it wasn't there before.  Weird.
