Need a little help.
Unit: TSU9600
I captured an image of our 16 camera display and am using it at background.
Idea being that rather than say front door, you can see a picture of what camera will be looking at once button is pressed.
Problem is that I don't want any text or button graphics to show and obscure the background image.

I've tried:
Insert text box. Doesn't allow me to enter any Actions.

Insert a button from top menu but don't assign an actual button from Gallery. Nothing happens.

Insert graphical button. Obscures the image, no go.

Insert graphical button, then delete it. Button space goes white and completely covers the background image.

I need your guidance in either telling me what I'm missing or telling me where I can find completely transparent button.

Thanks,
Mario

What you need to do is create a button (.png) in photoshop or the like that is 99% transparent. It's still completly invisible to the naked eye but the software can see it and you simply overlay it on the image location and assign the command/jump as necessary.

The way the software works it that it senses button presses only on visible content. For instance the built in source icons may have a larger transparent border around it. Touching this won't yeild a touch response, however pressing the visible part of the icon will. Thus the 1%+ of visibility is required by the software for a "transparent" button.

Why not cut your captured image into the sixteen images and use each as a button, rather than trying to see though buttons to a background?

Better still, poll each of the cameras to periodically update the button images with "live" images (obviously you will need to space out the polling for 16 cameras).

mariomp,

Zephyr's suggestion is that standard solution to your problem. If you need a 99% transparent png, send me an RC mail and I can send you one.
