After a few years rest I thought I would have a play in Daz Studio so downloaded 4.21 and started having a play...Remember DS has never been my program to use...so am having lots of trouble learning this. lol
Now it seems to render with a foggy transparent background and I then save it as a PNG. but when I go look at it from my computer it has a black background and is no longer transparent...not sure if it's Daz or my computer that is causing this...but it's driving me nuts, all I wanted to do was make some tubes and enjoy myself, at this rate I will never pick up DS ever again.

Any help would be appreciated

Okay I think it may be my computer, I downloaded your image and opened it in psp 7 and it is now a background image.

in Daz there is a Tab Called Render Settings when You open it there is a List of Stuff Going Down first is All, Favorites, Currently Used.
when All is Selected there are a list Below Currently Used.
in that list it goes. General, Render Mode, Progressive Rendering, Alpha, Optimization, Filtering, Spectral Rendering, White Mode, Section Objects, Tone Mapping, Environment.

Environment is the one you click.
once you are there you are looking for a Section called Draw Dome
it has two Settings On, Off You want this to Be off
The other one You Want off in this Section is Draw Ground this also has two Settings On, Off You Want it also off.
