Of course, when you use a polygon. I've been meaning to put together a means of using graphics/polygons as masks for some time now, and your email served as the inspiration to do so. Execute the following in your message box (requires Rev 3 or later): go url "http://www.tactilemedia.com/site_files/downloads/masking_options.rev" (Watch line wrap -- should be all one line.) Two methods are shown in the demo stack, both of which rely on a combination of ink effects and a group. While not quite as straightforward as SuperCard, you can achieve the same effect. Plus, using the same techniques, you can do even better by using an image as a mask, which allows you to create soft edges around the "holes" of the mask. See the spotlight demo available on my site: go url "http://www.tactilemedia.com/site_files/downloads/spotlight.rev" Of course an image is not a polygon, but you get the idea. Hope this is useful.
