Hi everyone.
I'm using the code at http://paste.tclers.tk/1378 to generate graphs. The code is a very lightly modified version of the example in the module's documentation.
The result has a black background in the grid portion of the image. Eg: http://pc.autons.net/stuff/perl__image_ ... mage-1.png
The issue remains the same whether the output file is given a .gif or .png extension.
I'm using Image::Magick::Chart::HorizontalBars as refreshed from CPAN yesterday and ImageMagick 6.4.7-3 as downloaded from http://www.imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php
Any and all suggestions for resolving this would be much appreciated.

Re: Image::Magick::Chart::HorizontalBars: Black grid background
I reported this to the module author, Ron Savage, on Friday and he's uploaded an updated module to CPAN. The fix has resolved the issue for me.
I'm told the problem was in Image::Magick::Chart's method draw_frame(), where it called Image::Magick's Draw(); Draw()'s fill option previously defaulted to 'none' but in new versions it defaults to something else. Ron apparently fixed his code by specifying "fill => 'none'," to a number of parameter lists.
Many thanks to Ron for his prompt solution
