colourback for text

[Neja]

I have a full screen graphic (640x400) that I've got on Turing, however, I don;t know how (actuall,y I'm not even sure if it can be done) to get the back of the text clear, so the graphis can be seen through the text box.

u could make yer textbox transparent or using masking technique but u'd need yer custom created text box

the idea here is to use Font.Draw for the text... Though if you still want to have a "box" to type in, you should make your own custom GUI... Shouldn't be too hard for the textbox.
