Yes, I googled it. everyone wants me to buy special/expensive software I can't afford or suggests things that don't work for PCs.
Other's say there's a way to right click an image and make a specific color transparent... but only if you're using a cell phone.
This is being used on a win10 desktop 24" monitor.
------------------------------
With all the questions/problems I've had with icons lately, one that's vexed me for years is creating a custom wallpaper icon background that is clear/transparent.
Not the Icon itself, just the background.
I create a custom icon by producing a small square image as a .bmp
When I'm satisfied with it, I save it, then go into the folder I saved it to and change the .bmp to .ico and that works great as an icon.
Unless the wallpaper is the same color as the edges of the image, I end up with dimples in the corners or a frame. See above.
Is there a way in Win 10 to assign a color that's transparent?
Icons that come from software have clear backgrounds of fingers pointing, irregular logos etc.
Can that be duplicated?
No, I haven't tried anything yet for those of you who think my previous (and unsolved) icon problems stem from experimentation that messed up some setting somewhere.
