Hello. Does Paintshop Pro still have a transparency tool? If so, where is it?
Hi David, If you look at the “Layers” palette(placing at the bottom-right by default), you’ll see that the default opacity for each layer is 100 (no transparency). You can change the opacity of each layer to make image/object transparent. If you don’t see the Layer palette, you can open it by going to [View]/[Palettes] and check “Layers”. Hope it helps!
