F�ilte Fellow Scripters:

I am required to set "background shade" and "Background color" in rectangles. However, when I set fill tint, nothing happens. The code looks like this:

...
tell last page
tell last rectangle
tell properties
-- I have also used 80 to no effect.
set fill tint to .8
end tell
end tell
end tell

To change these two properties of a rectangle what properties do I need to manipulate, and what are the ranges of values that I must use?

TIA.

John
