Transparent Shapes

edited August 2006 in End User
One of my users is trying to create an advertising report of property
photographs in a circle. This doesn't seem possible to me particularly as
shapes don't seem to be able to be made transparent.

Please advise if there is any way of doing this.

    - Select the Shape and then use the Draw toolbar to set the FillColor to 'No
    Fill'

    - Send to Back can also be used to layer objects (i.e. z-order)

    Whilst this does show the image underneath the are outside the circle, in
    this case, is also transparent.

    I do not understand. Please create a simple example and send to
    support@digital-metaphors.com in zip format. Include a description of what
    result you are trying to achieve and the issue with the layout. We can look
    at it here and try to determine a solution.
