Hi, I'm a newbe at panel editing, thought someone could help me with a panel gauge from a fs2002 a/c that shows transparaties as black in fs2004. Have previewed the gauge in fsps and PSP it shows the bitmap area as o,o,o, which is transparent in fs2004 but when displayed in fs it's black. I'm sure the answer is simple, but i,m just a simple newbe... Peter.

Hi,Try to convert the bitmap to 24 bit and apply again 0,0,0 to the transparant section and save as 8 bit with maintaining transparancy.Hope it helps,Jan"Beatus ille qui procul negotiis..."
