A project specifies that for the cover of a brochure there be a photograph as the background (doable in Context), and semi-transparent rectangles across the page highlighting the various strings of text. The rectangles darken but do not completely block out the underlying illustration. It is a layer cake, a photo, with semi-transparent rectangles laid across it, and type within the rectangles.
This is a job more easily done in Gimp etc. but my question is, can it be done in Context at all? How do I create the semi-transparent elements? -- John Culleton Want to know what I really think? http://apps.wexfordpress.net/blog/ And my must-read (free) short list: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
