"Fireworks question"

In fireworks you can fill a box with a linear fade.

Does anyone know how to make one of the end colours on the fade transparent?

I don't think you can. Couldn't you just use the pipette to pick the colour that is next to the shape.

This is the only thing I could think of...

White is transparent in these terms.

I don't think it's possible in Fireworks, but I'll have a try.

I tried this early but without any luck. I'm 99% sure that this is not possible, but still, if I find a way, I'll let you know.

Voila. Just tried it and it works perfectly, but does convert your vecotrs to bitmap graphics.

Do I need any programmes to run/edit this? it says when you've finished your fireworks thing export it to Dreamweaver or another HTML editing programme, do you need this? I thought you'd be able to make it a .gif file and load it staright onto your website.

This is agreat programme, I need to know how to use it though, so I guess i'll use the rest of tonight to work on it, any other hints of genius would be gratefully recieved though :)

One more thing, how do you create this fade on an image?
