I'm sorry for the sill question but for the life of me....I'm stuck on something that seems so simple but I can't get it to work.
I have several rectangles on a card... I want them to look like this:

Gold border, slight green background then the white scrolling field....
The gold border is no problem but nothing I do will fill the boxes in??
I've got another question on Geometry I'll post in a sec...
Thanks!

Good Afternoon...
Select the fill colour you want from 'colours & patterns' in the graphic's object inspector.
Make sure 'opaque' is selected in the graphic's object inspector.
be well

TodayIsTheDay,
if you are using version 4 of RunRev, the prerelease version, then you could make a field with the fancy graphic effects.
make a field "myField" and a button, set the script of the button to
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
put "" into myOuterGlowArray
put "normal" into myOuterGlowArray["blendmode"]
put "204,255,102" into myOuterGlowArray["color"]
put "gaussian" into myOuterGlowArray["filter"]
put "255" into myOuterGlowArray["opacity"]
put "255" into myOuterGlowArray["range"]
put "22" into myOuterGlowArray["size"]
put "255" into myOuterGlowArray["spread"]
set the outerglow of field "myField" to myOuterGlowArray
put "" into myDropShadowArray
put "319" into myDropShadowArray["angle"]
put "normal" into myDropShadowArray["blendmode"]
put "255,204,102" into myDropShadowArray["color"]
put "0" into myDropShadowArray["distance"]
put "gaussian" into myDropShadowArray["filter"]
put "true" into myDropShadowArray["knockout"]
put "255" into myDropShadowArray["opacity"]
put "31" into myDropShadowArray["size"]
put "255" into myDropShadowArray["spread"]
set the dropShadow of field "myField" to myDropshadowArray
end mouseUp
I am just playing around with the new toys.
regards
Bernd
