chamster Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 I know that The Character box, party box, option box, etc are able to be made transparent. But I can't find the TUT for it, so if you know where it is can you post it up please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzbrandon Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 First of all I asked the same question last night lol but you cant do it to them if you are running Eclipse 2.0 picscreen's cannot become semi transparent or transparent. You will need CS:DE eclipse but I would prefer Eclipse Advanced in the Custom versions. If you want to put transparent boxes then you will have to render them to the picscreen.

Ertzel Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 First of all, Zzb, you probably shouldn't be posting suggestions/answers when you don't know what to do. Chamster mentioned that they know the Character/Party/Options, ect.. boxes are transparent. That clearly tells you he is using a version that is using the new rendering also used in EA that supports transparency.As for the actual topic, can you be a little more specific on what exactly your trying to render? Can you provide a sample code of what you have tried or what you are wishing to accomplish, so we have something to base the answer/help on.

Ertzel Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 If your using actual pictureboxes, then no they cannot. If you are making the illusion of a picturebox by rendering an image like the Inventory/Party/Options, ect.. "windows" do, then yes you can.Look at the code for something like GUI_OPTIONS and try creating your own using that as a base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzbrandon Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Dude if you made a transparent picture and rendered it to the picturebox would it appear transparent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertzel Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 no because the PICTUREBOX CANNOT BE TRANSPARENT….. It would show whatever color the picturebox is under the transparent parts of the image drawn to it.Think of it this way...A Picturebox is a piece of wood. You want this wood to have an image on it. You paint the image on the picturebox using a background.You then want a different piece of wood with the same image but a transparent background, so you draw the image without a background. You cannot suddenly see through the piece of wood as the piece of wood is NOT TRANSPARENT. Simple drawing something transparent does not change the state of the surface.

Zzbrandon Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Would it be easy to render a transparent inventory without picture box to the picscreen for Dragon Eclipse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 If you don't use a picture box it will become transparent. Or so I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
