The problem is that when you click on the textboxes, they show through the placard. It is not opaque. I am using RB 2010 R1 Mac. It works find when compiled to Mac, but when you run it on Windows the textbox controls show through. Here is an image: Is there anyway to fix this? The controls are arranged so that the placard in moved to the front. I searched the forum and someone else had the same problem, but it does not look like it was ever resolved. I just need a placeholder to put some radio buttons in that is opaque to the rest of the controls. Any ides would be appreciated.

Jim I have seen this as well, but in your case, I would just put your search criteria into a separate window and open that window to allow selecting the desired options instead of trying to get it all done within the same window. An alternative would be to disable the rest of the controls that you see 'bleeding' through when you show the placard, and re-enable them when you are done. I don't believe that disabled controls will exhibit the behavior that you are seeing. _________________ RB 2009r4 Windows XP Top mjh Post subject: Re: Placard Not Opaque ProblemPosted: Mon Jan 31, 2011 2:54 pm Joined: Sun Feb 19, 2006 3:10 pm Posts: 1068 Location: Hamburg, Germany Since you are using the Placard as if to simulate another window, why donât you just use an actual window? _________________ Michael J.
