    When you ctrl-click the transparent/outside-the-artboards area do you get a dropdown menu?

      These art known as Artboards in the English version of Photoshop. If you have the artboard tool option for "Shrinkwrap Canvas on Save" ticked, then the extended canvas should be trimmed to fit the artboard content after saving:

       

       

      Artboard backgrounds can be set for the active artboard under the Properties panel.

       

      If you don't like the transparency checkerboard preview pattern, this can be changed under Preferences > Transparency & Gamut

        Are you talking about Artboards? 

        Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible?
