Why does my image have a white background when exported from Figma in Webflow?
When exporting an image from Figma and then importing it into Webflow, you may encounter an issue where the image has a white background instead of a transparent background. This issue occurs due to the way Figma exports images by default. To resolve this problem and achieve a transparent background, you can follow these steps:
Export the image in the correct format: In Figma, ensure that you export the image in a file format that supports transparency. The best format to use is PNG or SVG.
Check the export settings: Before exporting the image, make sure that you have selected the correct export settings. In Figma, you can specify the format, resolution, and whether or not to include the background color in the export. Ensure that the "Include in export" checkbox for the background color is unchecked.
Import the image into Webflow: Once you have exported the image with the proper settings, go to your Webflow project. Open the page where you want to add the image, and then drag and drop the image file into the desired location.
Change the image settings in Webflow: After importing the image, select it and go to the Image Settings panel in the right sidebar. Under the Background section, make sure that the Background Color is set to "Transparent". This setting ensures that the image retains its transparency when displayed on your website.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully export an image from Figma with a transparent background and then import it into Webflow without encountering any white background issues.
