How do I remove the background of an image in Adobe Animate?

To make the background of your Adobe Animate project transparent when published, you need to adjust the Publish Settings. Here's how:

1. Open Publish Settings: Go to File > Publish Settings.
2. Select HTML: Ensure that "HTML" is selected in the left-hand panel. This controls the HTML wrapper that embeds your SWF.
3. Set Window Mode to Transparent: In the HTML tab, look for the "Window Mode" menu (sometimes labeled as "Windowless Mode"). Select "Transparent Windowless" from the dropdown. This setting tells the browser to make the SWF file's background transparent, allowing the content behind it to show through.

By using the "Transparent Windowless" option, your Adobe Animate content will have a transparent background when viewed in a web browser that supports this feature.
