Re: Fields appearance
Bill: Here's a thought about upgrading the appearance of your fields (but not about rounded corners). Drag a datagrid from the palette, set it to the size of your field, then capture its image with command- shift-4. Import the image, then place it behind your field. Set the textHeight of your field to 21. This looks very nice.

Fields appearance
Is there a way to modify the appearance of a field beyond what I can do in the properties? For example, I'd like to round the corners of the field. The only way I know how to do it is to put a graphic over the field that has rounded corners but that seems pretty tedious and clunky. The look of the fields seems a bit dated so I'd like to dress them up.

Its still a hack, but you could use a graphic object rather than an image. If you're after rounded corners then the rounded rectangle objects look pretty good as long as you have antialiasing on and you can easily resize and customize them (line colour, thickness etc). I'm sure you use this approach to create a generic 'rounded' field object using parent scripts. Terry... The look of the fields seems a bit dated so I'd like to dress them up.
