Transparent Text Box

W

Wayne Wengert

I need to overlay one text box over part of another text box.On the "top"
text box I set Fill to "No Fill" which (I thought) would make it transparent
and allow the text on the bottom text box to show thru? That doesn't work.
How can I accomplish this?

Select the text box / type Ctrl+T.

You'll also need to set the text wrapping to "None", otherwise the text
below will still wrap around the box above.
