Problem

In Descartes I would like to know how to pick multiple colors to be transparent on a full color image.

Solution

Normally only one color or all colors can be set transparent in a color raster image.

With Descartes loaded bring up Raster Manager and go to Utilities - Descartes Attachment. Here you can set transparency. Click on the image name on the right side and then click on Mask at the bottom left corner. Create a color mask including all the colors on the image you want to be transparent. When done click on the Mask in the list on the left side of the dialog and then click insert. Use the transparency bar in the middle to set the percentage.
