Title: Buddamame/Cpmaker Question
Post by: J-man on January 18, 2006, 09:05:21 pm

I recently switched from using Buddamame v .97 to v 102 and am now having a small problem with my button labels. 

Can anyone tell me how to make button label boxes with a transparent background?

With version .97 I used the following layout setting:
<BackColor>16777215</BackColor>
This caused the background to be transparent.

With version 102 this causes the background to be white.

Any help is most appreciated,
J

You have probably unearthed a bug in the way CPMaker handles CPViewer layouts.

Version v0.103 will be out soon. I can upload a v0.102 executable if you like. Do you just need the MAME executable?

Budda,

Thanks for the reply ... the executable would be just fine.

By the way, my wife and I love being able to check the button layout on the fly.  Nice work.
