Can't find the "make background transparent"

[andypilot]

I've just upgraded to Director MX from using 8.5

I cannot find how I can make a text box background transparent. I know this
has got to be easy, but I'm lost!

I'll give kudos to the first correct respondant! :)

Select the text sprite. Press CTRL - ALT - S to bring up the properties
inspector. Make sure u are seeing the "sprite" property sheet. You will
see an "INK" parameter. Click on the combo and choose "Background
Transparent".

NOw, gimme my kudoz.

I hope you mean that you upgraded to Director MX 2004 from 8.5. If not, and
you literally "just upgraded" then you should be able to get MX 2004 for
free. See the MM web site for details.

Ok, I found that after about an hour of searching! Now, I have another
question. I can't rollover the image and have it change like I could in 8.5

Where do I create the rollover behaviour so that when the cursor is "rolled"
over the image, it changes from one, to another, or at least allows the cursor
to change!
