Title: Buttons with transparent background? How?
Post by: Giulio Buccini on September 26, 2022, 08:33:06 PM

Hello,

I'm playing with Machscreen V1.73, modifying a pre-existing screenset.

There is a way to make a new button completely transparent, so only the underlying image is visible?
If I click on the added button, I can set any background color from a palette. But no way to choose a "none" color...
Maybe the solution is under my eyes, but I cannot see it...  :-[

SOLVED!  ;D

1. Add an "Image button" instead of a "Button".
2. Machscreen will prompt you for an image.
3. Choose any small image on your PC and click "Open".
4. Select you new ImageButton and search for the "Path" property. Click on it.
5. the complete filepath will be shown in a yellow field. Erase it completely and hit the RETURN key.
6. Done.
