[Scribus] type /with/ graphic problem

[stu seven]

+   Craig - thanks for your replies... unfortunately,
we seem to be working with different versions...
of Scribus... none of the menu items you listed
appear on mine, at least not with those names...
  ...I have found ONE area in Preferences which
does change the background color for text frames...
unfortunately, in my version of Scribus, setting this
to NONE - at the top of list - produces a WHITE
background, still blocking the graphic under it,
rather than being transparent.
     I thank you again for your replies.. I'll have to
wait, maybe, till I upgrade to use this feature.
