MS Paint in Windows 7
In previous version of Windows, there was an option in MSPaint called "Draw Opaque". I cannot find that option in Windows 7 version. Where is this option, or was it removed?

Marc This behavior has been renamed in the Windows 7 version of Paint. 'Draw Opaque' is the default behavior. To change this setting, click the arrow under 'Select' and check 'Transparent Selection'. Hope this helps. Nick

Checking the "select transparent" option seems not to make a difference: the area I select remains opaque when I move it or copy-and-paste it. I have tried saving the file in both ".bmp" and ".png" formats, but there seems to be no difference.
