Hi everyone,
I exported an image from a rendering software which had an option to 'apply alpha channel'. By mistake I enabled this option and later realized all my images had no sky background.
While viewing the images in photos (Windows) I noticed the background would show for a split second before Photos applying the alpha...
I opened the image in Gimp and when I unticked alpha channel, Voilà, the background was recovered.
Problem is... I can't export it for some reason... when I save as PNG the background is back to transparent, and when I save as JPG it is all white... but that is not what I am seeing in my GIMP window...
When I run Layer > Transparency > Remove Alpha Channel. I do get the white background preview.
