I didn't use : "the color - Tool, select transparent for background and foreground color and click on the control" yet, could you tell me how to do this

I figered out then when I use SHIFT + right mouse click that I can get the color tool but how do I get transparent?

[chrisger]

transparent color is marked as "T" or "X" in the upper right corner of the color selector dialog.

It's the little "T" in the upper right corner of the color pop-up.
