Export as to export png moves the image on the canvas

I'm not sure if this is normal behavior but I have a png with transparency. It's meant to be use as a texture for a 3D asset so both the transparency and it's exact placement on the canvas is very important. I've been using the file>export>export as to generate my pngs but am finding that the resulting png changes the location of the pixel information on the canvas. Everything shifts towards to middle. How/where can I manage this 'feature'?

This is a known issue. I have not found a way yet to show Photoshop how much of the transparency should be included when saving as a png.

In theory you should be able to create a path with no stroke or fill to outline the border. Currently I don't know if this is a short coming of the png format or a Photoshop issue.

Hi Silkrooster

Is this image or system dependant? I've been trying to reproduce here and I am getting an exact copy every time with no movement (CC2017 and CC2015.5 on Windows 10)

Is it also the same when you "Save File As ..." by going to File menu item? In file Save as you can then choose png file format to test this out.

I don't have the option to save a .png from 'Save as...' I am on a PC, is the same true for Mac?

If you are in 8 bit RGB you should have an option to Save As png.

Still having trouble replicating this. Please show me where I am missing a step.
1. Create a document (I have used the same size as yours 940 x 6708 pixels with transparent background)

2. Add a layer with some non transparent pixels off centre
