Shape Editor: Import transparent image

alros

We are trying to use a transparent icon (currently in .png format, can be converted if necessary) in a shape.

The problem is that when adding the .PNG to a shape in shape editor using the Insert > Shape menu entry, the transparent region is displayed in black, removing the transparency.

What type of image (rasterized) can be used so that the icon is transparent? Or is there a work-around?
Note that the shape isn't opaque itself so removing the transparency is not an option.

 

See here for a screenshot of the problem.

Hello

 

After discussion with R&D, I can confirm that transparent image are not yet supported for shapes/diagram editor.

This is a signficant development that has not yet been planned.
