The trick is to make sure that the background for the real3D text has a =
background colour that is transparent, rather than set to any particular =
color.
If you set the attribute =
<region id=3D"intro_region" left=3D"0" top=3D"0" width=3D"439" =
height=3D"200"background-color=3D"transparent"/>
It should work fine

Subject: SMIL help
I sent this before but got no responses. Can some of the SMIL experts
and Real pplz provide some assistance..thanx!
I have a SMI file with the following 2 sections info:
1. an intro using real3d text
2. a video region, 2 text areas and a jpeg
The real3d text part is an intro with the second part all running
concurrently. The problem is that when the intro completes running,
its region still overlaps the second section. Both clips run fine,
except for the small problem that the intro realtext3d clips, overlaps
the second part (ie the video, 2 text areas, and jpeg). I want the
intro to play first then go away, then load the 2nd part.
Looking forward to your responses..thanX!
Note that due to the limited space, I had to remove some of the
indents. BTW, if this is hard to follow then I can send a better
indented version.
