[OpenMap Users] semi-transparent layers?

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this issue before. I need to create
a shape that's very elaborate, and the only way I know to form it is as a
composite graphic (consisting of OMRects, OMPolys, and OMCircles). The
problem is that I also need the composite graphic to be semi-transparent.
Of course, when I set the transparency of the OMGraphics individually,
regions of overlap are darker. A proposed theoretical solution to this was
to draw the objects as fully opaque into a "layer" (not necessarily
OpenMap's Layer class), and then set the layer to be semi-transparent, so
that no overlap is visible. I'm aware that no OpenMap Layer subclass is
capable of this kind of behavior, but I'd like to know if anyone has advice
about what to do.

Thanks in advance!
Kim
