Image transparency

Question

I understand it possible to embed images in most elements via creole. But the image transparency channel is not taken into account. Can that be fixed? Or is there a parameter to specify this? For example, the plantuml logo has a transparent background, but is rendered with black background within this forum and on the plantuml.com main page. 

start
:foo;
note left
 You can use images
<img:http://plantuml.com/logoc.png>
end note
stop

Thanks for the report.

There are some issue with PNG transparency in Java. We follow the solution proposed here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18743790/can-java-load-images-with-transparency

This should be fixed in last beta http://beta.plantuml.net/plantuml.jar
