Yeah, I don't believe you *can* make an editable text member transparent. You have options, though. If it's on a solid color, you can set the bgColor of the member to match. If not, you can use a field (with the loss of anti-aliasing).

Sorry,

I feel like such a beginner today which is not doing my deadline any good.

I'm building a simple form for a project using editable text members for the inputs. I've got their ink set to Background Transparent so the underlying
artwork is visible but whenever I select a text input to fill in, the
background colour of the member shows up, thus creating a solid block of
colour.

I'm sure I've gotten around this before but I can't remember for the life of
me how. Any ideas?

TIA
