Subject: Re: Bug: Can't set background color of latex fragment
Date: Sat, 10 Apr 2021 16:27:21 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAG8iPGy1LqWLYTqgNZA3pBUeYMzLq6UZQdgOdgSmOv0nVPS+4A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I can confirm this bug with dvipng --- with the "-bg Transparent"
option, dvipng ignores the background color from the input tex file,
whereas without that option it always produces an opaque background.
There's currently no way to dynamically change command line
parameters, so I'm not sure how to solve this problem while supporting
both use cases.
