Question

png files, not transparent any more

Since replacing PE21 with PE22 all the png graphics I previously downloaded now show a background when imported on to the time-line instead of being transparent as they should be. How can I address this? Do I need to add a new codec for this version of PE? Is there something that I'm overlooking? 

Amateur in distress here,

Please help!

That's not my experience. Transparent PNGs are still transparent in Premiere Elements 2022.

 

What operating system are you using? Are these new projects you created in version 2022 or are you opening projects that were created in older versions of the program?

Hi Steve, I'm using Windows 10 as I did with PE21. The projects are newly created in 22. The PNG graphics that I had saved on my pc worked perfectly on 21 but now they have chequered backgrounds.

Again, are you loading these PNGS into a new project created in version 2022 or are you opening a 2021 project in version 2022?
