Wolfgang,
Thanks! That one works. And much more elegant than what I was developing.
Just so I understand:
"background={partimage,color}" : This creates the background from both the
image and the backgroundcolor, correct?
What does the "s=1" and the "a=1" do in defining the color partwhite? I can't
find anything on the web.
Bart
