Hi, Subbu,

First, decide on a color to represent "transparent," and then in the paint tool, paint with that color everywhere that you intend to be transparent.

After saving the painting and exiting from the paint tool, bring up the halo on the resulting SketchMorph, and from its halo menu choose the last item, 'painting...' and from the submenu choose "erase pixels of color...". In the resulting "eyedropper" cursor mode, click on the color you chose to represent transparency, and you're done.

Cheers,

  -- Scott

Hi,

I wonder if there is an easier way to paint shapes with holes in them by methods other than by erasing pixels at a time? For instance, a nut can
be drawn by putting a small circle in a larger hexagon and flooding it
(the circle) with "transparent" paint.

Is it possible to "unfill flood" (i.e. flood an area with 100%
transparency) with the Paint tool in Squeak?

Thanks in advance. I really like the way you folks respond quickly and
precisely to newbie queries.
