Make radio field transparent?

[jcl154]

Is there anyway to make fields transparent or clear, or must they always contain a color?

Thanks

you can choose not to have a fill for either line or background.

In Layout mode, choose the field, and then Fill Pattern. Choose the first box.

Read about Fill Patters in your help. Do a search of the Help or check the User Guide for:

Thank you, I did look in help but was looking under "field." Can you recommend a good manual to buy? I was just looking at FileMaker Pro 10: The Missing Manual, or FilemakerPro 10 Bible. Thanks.

Those two books are fine. However, before you buy a book, be sure that you have read the User Guide, worked though the tutorials, and tried out the tools by making a few files.

Check out the training available at FileMaker Inc., here is the Link.

Check out the sponsors that are on the pages of the Forum, and the ads that have been placed in our Advertising Topic.

You will find this forum helpful for answering "how to" questions, you probably can find most of them have been answered in the past if you can figure out the Keywords to search for. (we're trying to improve that feature)
