Hi,

Please open the Polys.txt file that you can find inside the Tools folder. Every polygon has a Color. Color=80XXYYZZ will do what you want. When color starts by FF (=255) it will be full opaque. If it starts with 80 (=128) it will be semi transparent. Use Find & Replace and create your own custom Polys.txt.

Good luck,

Luis

Hi joviro.

You may also want to change transparency for colors in the following files in the Tools folder:

Lands.txt, Lines.txt, Polys.txt, and Waters.txt

Using a replace funtion in a text editor, change

Color=FF to Color=80 for all the "finds".
