tuned99,
I checked into this issue and the Boolean transparency has been reported to R&D and is currently being investigated. I would agree with LabVIEWGuruWannabe about using the Picture Control. It does support the Mouse Down event which will be useful, but you will have to click off of the graph to get the event to register. Please repost with any additional questions.
Thanks!
Andy F.
