Make sure that you have not set MI to display 24 bit color in the Window's
registry.  If you don't know what I am talking about, then chances are you
have not made this change and something else is wrong.  Visit Bill Thoen's
site, http://www.ctmap.com/mapinfo/files1.htm
<http://www.ctmap.com/mapinfo/files1.htm> , for a utility that will change
this setting back to 8 bit.

                Hi all listers
                        I'm new to this list, but have already picked up
some useful information. I 

                have been using MapInfo now for a while but still have alot
to learn!
                I wonder if anyone can shed some light on my problem about
the transparency 

                settings. I'm overlaying an aerial photo with an OS raster.
I can make the 

                white of the raster transparent in the 'table - adjust image
styles' so that 

                the aerial photo is visible, but I would like to change the
black outline of 

                the raster to another colour so it shows up better against
the photo. I can 

                change the raster colour in photo paint, but when I then
bring it back into 

                MapInfo I can't make the white transparent anymore....seems
that you can 

                only use the transpareny on a grayscale raster.....any
ideas?
