In previous versions, I used a SVG file to add a floor plan to the skin. The svg created a transparent key plan which didn't distract the viewer whilst viewing the pano. See attached image
The latest floor plan generator within version6.0.1 doesn't have the desired effect. The only file type option to use is jpg or png. The key plan is solid. The transparency option tick box lowers the visibility over the whole image. I would like the white to be transparent.
If this possible to do?
Hopefully the attached jpgs will clarify the info above.
thankyou

I was just about to chime in that I was having the same problem but I just figured it out. You need to use a PNG image with transparency. But Pano2VR defaults to converting the floor plan image to a JPEG on export so you need to go to Properties - Map and check PNG as Format and select a transparent Background Color.
