Alex O. well I haven't tested it, but it MUST loose transparency as soon as it's drawn you see.

Tonyg, ah yes good plan, thanks! Will work well unless I have wide text say at the top of the scroll, and the middle of the scroll curves in more than the wide text at the top. So in principle the question still remains for general use even though it's solved for my use for now...
