Colors/Borders

[Pete]

Hoping to get some guidance on a couple of issues regarding colors and
borders.

I have a group that has all the default properties set except I switched on
showBorder with a borderwidth of 2.  All looks as expected with a light
gray background and a visible border.  Now I set the background in the
Colors and Patterns tab of the inspector to a specific color and turned the
opaque property on.  The color changes as expected but the border
disappears.  I tried setting the color of the border but no difference.
 How do I get my border back?

On the same card I have a rectangle whose background I wanted to be the
same color as the group.  I changed the Fill color of the rectangle to the
same setting as the group, but the color is a slightly different shade than
the group's background.

Thanks,
