Container Fields & Transparent Graphics

[Jarvis]

I would like to be able to insert a picture (jpeg) into a container field and have the image show up with a transparent background. Right now when I do this the background shows up white and clips the preceding image if I stack them too close together on a layout.

To keep oversize file size small, I would like to insert a reference to the picture rather than the picture itself.

I am running Filemaker 6 on a Macintosh G4.

I prefer OS 9 but could run OS 10 if needed.

Can anybody shed some light on this topic?

Thanks.

Make sure the field itself is transparent (not filled with white or any other colour).

Vaughn,

If that solution would have been a snake, I'm sure it would have bit me.

Thank you.
