I have a file which i need to save as TGA, which is plain black. I needs to have a completely transparent (black) alpha channel too. When i save as a TGA it inverts the alpha to opaque (white). Is this a PS bug, TGA limitation, or am i doing something wrong?

I'm using CS on OSX10.3.

Thanks.

I had a problem which may be the same as yours few weeks ago. I had a topic with the solution in it so you can search for that.

I couldn't find the thread you had with the solution in, but I've fixed it now by putting a single white pixel in the corner of the alpha channel. not ideal but it works!
thanks
