Transparent Tables

Not sure if this is possible? … but

Does anyone know of a way to make table fills transparent?
I.e - just display the text in the table with the page background visible through the table?

cheers

Just remove the fill. Select the cells of the table, select Format + Cell, select the “Appearance” tab and set the “Fill” setting to None. I believe that will do it. 8)
