The secret is in the "ink" setting of the group the graphic is in

Not sure about Linux but AFAIK, Mac and Win are supposed to be good to go.

And of course these inks are only in Rev 2.7 (?) and later.

Hi Scott,

This is a great effect but I can't follow how it works.  If copy and  
paste the spotlight oval in your stack, the copied oval shows up  
black... the transparency is lost.   I can't see any difference in  
the properties.  What am I missing?


Thanks
Mark

I have a stack that might illustrate what you're trying to do.   
Execute the

following in your message box:

 go url "http://www.tacilemedia.com/download/spotlight.rev";

Sorry for the large filesize (860K) but this was the most immediate  
example

I had.

Hi Scott:

Sorry. I should have followed your original instructions. It looked  
like a web link in Mail.


Your "Spotlight" stack is beautiful, graphically and in its apparent  
simplicity!!!

no, Paul that wasn't a regular link . Web 
browsers don't know about Rev source documents.


use  [go url

in the  Rev messagebox.


it will open right there. No downloading.

Inks: black translucent background with hole

2007-08-15 Thread David Bovill 
Just wandering if someone who knows about inks can work this out: I want to
make a selection area of an image the only bit that shows up clearly with
the rest of the image darkened. I think I've done this before by using two
button on top of the image - one the whole size of the image and the other
the size of the selection. The combination of the inks results in a
completely translucent area - hope that is clear. I guess the other way is
to have 4 translucent black buttons and position them?
