Good day Joaquim Soriano Felipe,

it's always interesting to realize special needs of colleagues!

I really don't understand what you have in mind but you may first create
a 32bit image with all values set to zero and then apply "Reciprocal"
from the IJ menu item "Process > Math". This results in an image with
all values set to NaN (not a number). Of course, "not a number" isn't
"nothing at all"...

Another approach could be based on transparency.

Best

Herbie
