El_Pablo Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Hi, I feel a little dumb here for this easy question, but I could not figure it out. How can I display an optional date over a container field using conditional formatting a check box? - There are 2 fields : datePicture and showDatePicture. - The user has the possibility to show or not the date by checking the showDatePicture box. - There is always a value in datePicture. I was going to set the text of "datePicture" to clear pattern, but... surprise there is no transparent color for text. Is there a way to set the text transparent to make it invisible over a container? Thank you

hbrendel Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 You can work the other way around. Make the text default transparent and give it a textfill black if the condition is met.

hbrendel Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 Sorry about this. I had a wrong memory about how I solved this in the past. I use the color of the background, which of course is not possible in case of a picture.
