Importing PNG with Alpha Channel vw2012 - result black background

unearthed posted a question in Troubleshooting

Hi all, I've just got a script working to crop a square jpg to a circle , so resulting file is .png, and outside the circle is 100% transparent / alpha. Image encl. But when I import into vw, no matter what I do the outside shows as black, and prints as black. Is there a solution?

fixed 1-Bit PNG import and MAC OSX SIERRA

xaxakes74 posted a question in Known Issues

I have installed Sierra and after the installation I couldn't import a jpg anymore as an 1-bit PNG in my Vectorworks 2016. It remains 32 bit and therefore I cannot change it's color as I used to do. Same thing happens to VWX 2017 Test Version. VectorWorks 2013 still works without a problem. Furthermore the plans which have already 1-bit Pngs in them although they show correctly on the screen when I try to export the plan as PDF the 1-bit PNGs show only B&W. I'm using a iMac 27'' 16 GB RAM, mid 2013 Anyone else has the same problem?
