Image transparency: Color-keying and Alpha-blending in OpenInsight 10
Earlier versions of OpenInsight have supported basic image transparency via a method called "color-keying", where a specific color in the image is nominated as the transparent color (by default the color of the top-left pixel). When the image is drawn to screen the pixels that match the transparent color are not rendered so the background pixels show through instead. While this can be effective in simple cases it is sub-optimal for images that have smooth curves and shadows as these tend to appear very pixelated READ ON...

TECH TIPS
Did you know...That OpenInsight's database management system is based on pluggable storage implementations, called filing systems. The most common example is Linear Hash, which is implemented by the RTP57 filing system function. The configuration information for those filing systems, which primarily defines the set of tables available to an application, is stored persistently (i.e., is not lost when you log out of OpenInsight) in a .DBT file.
In OpenInsight terms, a table is available if it is attached, and thus can be opened. As a result, without additional coding, a table is not available unless it is in the application's .DBT file. READ ON...
