Transparent text

[xtrim]

Hi,

What is the workaround if the background is a gradient for example, but you need a size 12 transparent text?

Example: I have a check-boxes field and next to each value I put a a different text field.

If I'm understand you correctly, you want to change the text color based on the checkbox being checked or unchecked?

[xtrim]

not exactly...I can check one check box and some other check-boxes will change their color...

that depends. there are dozens of parameters involved here.

I actually mimiced how qlikview (qlikview.com) works in filemaker....work nice but not as fast though :)

Not exactly sure what you mean, but when I want to make text disappear I use conditional formatting to make the size go to 500px and because it's so big it doesn't show in the text box. Good luck

that is a great idea!

Genius! This has worked for so far in every scenario. Thanks voltron2112!
