Please show your entire interface, including the Layers panel (resize taller to show all layers)

Apologies for the 2-day delay in seeing your post.

100% transparent is invisible. It's not clear what your question is.

indeed, a 100% transparant background, simple as that

I'm still not sure what you are asking, but if it is actually a Background layer, it cannot be transparent. There are two things you can do:

• Convert the Background layer to a pixel layer by renamining it or clicking the Lock icon
• Delete or hide the Background layer

Background layers are a unique layer that cannot be reordered, moved, or hold transparency and were required through Photoshop 5.0, but are no longer required (and haven't been since 5.5.)

@Egbert32897310n33j you could trace out the shape with the Pen Tool and then right clicking and selecting Stroke Path and then selecting Brush from the popup menu
