inkscape transparent background for objects

This method would work when the image is exported as a png or jpeg image. The image below (fig 4), illustrates how the image with opacity would render while using this method, when the image is placed in a different background. What this would do is create a white background for the entire image, well beyond the transparent layers as seen in fig 4.

Increase the opacity of that layer from 0 to 100.

Click on the Alpha layer which is the fourth channel.

Within Document Properties, under Page tab, click on Background color, which can be found under the Background section.

In Inkscape, Click on File –> Document Properties.

This tutorial explains two methods of doing that.

This can be resolved by adding a layer of opacity beneath the transparent layer(s).

When such a file is exported as a png file or used in a pdf/x1-a or pdf/x-3 file, the transparency may not render properly (fig 2). While creating images on Inkscape, gradients and transparencies can be used to blend colors or add texture to an image.
