Graph: fillcolor

[tvonbrasch]

Hi

Is it possible to store a picture so that the frame fill is transparent ? If not, is this an option that you could include in a future Eviews version ?

Unfortunately that is not possible.

Just to clarify, the graph 'save' proc already has the 'trans' option which

sets the background to transparent(for graph formats which support transparency.

As you asking for the same functionality but for the graph fill (ie within the frame)?

You probably don't want to do this, but as a possible solution you can set the fillcolor (via the 'options' proc) to same color as the background of where you are placing the image.

Hi

Yes you are correct. I wanted to the frame fill to be transparent. The reason is that many of the backgrounds we use at work are not exactly white, but with a bit of grey as well. it is difficult and time consuming to find an exact match. it would be much easier if the fill inside the frame also was transparent.
