Metacard HELP says to have a transparent graphic that will detect
mouseclicks, you set the file property to true and the ink to "noop". This
works fine with rectangle graphics, but not with polygon graphics. When a
card containing the graphic is opened for the first time, rectangle
graphics will be transparent, as advertised, but polygons will show the
reverse color (eg. pink if over green) of whatever is under the graphic.
Actually the color is only seen in about 90% of the graphic.

This occurs on the Mac with versions 2.2 and 2.3B. Things worked fine on
previous versions.

You can get the color to go away by editing the polygon; afterwards the
polygon is transparent. I am hoping that this can be fixed, because filled
tranparent polygons are a very useful tool!
