Thread: Transparency -through- Flash movies

  1. #1

    resolved

    Wondering if it's possible to have a Flash movie which has portions of itself that are transparent, so that any HTML underneath could be visible -through- the movie.

    But...

    The background of a Flash movie can be set to display as transparent, in some browser configurations. This allows the background color or image of the HTML page that contains the Flash movie to show through. However, this feature is only supported in Internet Explorer 3 or higher for Windows. The movie's background will not be transparent for users of Netscape Navigator for Windows and all Macintosh browsers.

    Transparent backgrounds are also not possible in a Flash standalone projector.

    Wonderful. Thank you. Now all I need to do is to think of another way to do it.
