    I would like the feature to trace a png image with white body and alpha channel active.

    Sometimes my clients send me a PNG with transparency to work with, like a logo or graphic of their own. To speed up the process I tend to vectorize with Image Trace because I need it in vectors, but it's impossible if the image is with white body and transparency because I end up with a solid white rectangle.

    In this cases, I need to open Photoshop, add my png, create a clipping mask, paint with the brush using any color except white, export, open again in Illustrator, and now i can Image Trace it.
