PNG image material alpha problem

working now, the post must be 20 char, why can’t I just delete the post?

Have you set the material blending property to NOT opaque?

That would be the Alpha, but it might not have an Alpha Mask built in.

Make sure to select the Blending Mode under the material settings, and you might need to switch from Alpha to Color, then plug it into the Alpha of the Principled BSDF… Raising the Transparent Bounces in Render Properties >Light Paths > Max Bounces can also help.

You are in material preview mode, which uses Eevee. That means you need to adjust Eevee’s transparency settings if you want the alpha to show as transparent in material preview.

You are in Blender 4.1. In that version, Eevee defaults to opaque materials, change it to one of the other modes (which one you need depends on what the transparency is supposed to look like).

blend_mode

How do that?

I’m in Cycles.

Yes, that fixed it, thank you!

All fixed using blend mode. Thanks

All fixed using blend mode. Thank you.

The Material Preview uses Eevee, so the settings from @etn249 need to be set.

Rendering should work as expected in Cycles.

Yes, blend mode Alpha blend.
