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?

Yes, I used here two layers for the background, one for the image and
another one for the color which is before the image.

What does the "s=1" and the "a=1" do in defining the color partwhite? I can't find anything on the web.


I used s=1 to define a white color and the other two to make it transparent.
