Hi Marty,
You certainly can use PNG's with an alpha channel in RR with no problem. While you can't shift-drag to constrain, you can write a simple handler to resize an image proportionally...or even easier is
create a button and name it "Proportionally Fit the Height to the Current Width" (I know kinda long, but that's what it does;-)
Then put the following script into the button:
on mouseUp put the formattedWidth of img "myImage" into tFW put the formattedHeight of img "myImage" into tFH put the width of img "myImage" into tW set the height of img "myImage" to tW/tFW*tFH end mouseUp
Next resize image "myImage" to roughly the size you want and then press the button. It will automatically set the height based upon the width proportionally.
Don't forget to
set the lockLoc of img "myImage" to true
when you're done so it won't 'revert back to it's original size' on openCard.
best,
Chipp

I have an Apple Keynote presentation that I'm thinking of recreating in Revolution so that I can customize the slide-to-slide timing and do a few other things that keynote can't do. Can Revolution recognize a graphic image that has an alpha mask-- to make part of an image transparent? If so, then I could mimic the cutouts in Keynote.
Also, when you place a graphic image in Revolution is there a way to constrain the proportions as you size the image?
