Hi, 2 possible approaches. If you want a blue background, you can use the "bgcolour" property of the pango producer: (note that instead of a .txt file you can use "+" to directly output text: melt +hello.txt bgcolour=blue will output hello on a blue background, but the aspect ratio of the background sometimes needs adjustment. Otherwise, using your 2 tracks way, you need to add a transition to see the blue background track: melt color:blue -track +hello.txt -transition composite always_active=1 halign=centre valign=centre regards jb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite It's a free troubleshooting tool designed for production Get down to code-level detail for bottlenecks, with <2% overhead.
