Your note implies it but just to make 100% sure. You are
calling jsvgcanvas.setBackground(new Color(0x0, true)) as well
as calling jsvgcanvas.setOpaque(false), correct?
Also is it possible that your SVG document has a 'background color'?
Usually just a large rectangle as one of the first children of the
root svg element (often with width="100%" height="100%").

Right but I have no idea what GearWindow might do that could
prevent things 'under' the canvas from getting drawn.

The canvas is transparent unless something draws something.
Since you have set the Swing fill to transparent, that leaves only
the SVG document or the Window as possible problems. Have you
seen what happens if you set the fill of the canvas to a solid
color (like bright green)? If you don't see that then something
in your document is filling the canvas. Likewise if you set
the background of the of Window to a bright color do you see that?
What is it you expect to see under the canvas?

Thomas,
Sorry, I should have been more specific. GearWindow extends Window and
contains a JSVGCanvas.
Do you have any suggestions about what kind of fill I should use? Is there
some other way of making the background transparent?

Your fill spec is a little suspicious, it looks like it
is trying to define a transparent white color, but that isn't
how you do that. So if you are filling a rect with that default
fill then that is your problem...

Re: JSVGCanvas#setOpaque method not working.

Hi Thomas,
I have a class which extends GearWindow. I initialize the class with the
following snippet of code:
canvas = new JSVGCanvas();
canvas.setSize(400,400);
this.setSize(400, 400);
canvas.setOpaque(false);
canvas.setBackground(new Color(0x0, true));
I use a <g> tag as the top level tag with the following settings:
<g
inkscape:label="Layer 1"
inkscape:groupmode="layer"
id="main_window"
width="237"
height="216" style="fill:#ffffff00">
Any ideas?
Mark
