Transparent graphics

[Slobey]

Hi everyone,

I was told that FMP7 supported transparencies. I can do this with a container field, but is there a way of doing with a pasted background graphic? I have a picture that has a transparent background and I want to make it sit in the background of a layout with a colored background.

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can use images with transparencies in layouts by using PNG graphics. Be sure to Insert->Picture instead of Copy-Paste.

That can only work if I use a field, right?. I just want to place it in the background

Graphics do not need to be stored in fields. You can insert graphics into the layout too.
