SWF or Img Files not displaying in skin

**ThunderStick** · 08-03-2007, 07:09 PM

I can get any image files or SWF files to display within my menu skin that is using transparent png files for the skin images. The actual skin image works fine, but when trying to display a flash movie or a png for a logo image no go.

It works in my other skin that doesnt use transparent png files.
ANy thought.
THis is getting frustrating.

I think I recall seeing that you may have to specify a layer for it to show on.

Have a read throught the release thread with the GDI in it.

or maybe this thread

Not necessarily. If there is no layer specified, it defaults to the "OUT" state.

Thunder, what line of code are you using to display the image.

I've had no trouble at all w/ inserting images into my skin that uses nothing but transparencies.

Ok I got it working.

Problem was file names not in quotes.

Simple I know. I was figuring out a lot of stuff today and was rushing through. The thing is thought it displayed the flash movie in the skin editor so I didnt even think to look at the code. Thought I had an issue somewhere else.
Thanks for the help...

My next skin is turning out pretty friggin sweat. PIcs will be posted soon.
ETA 1 month for Beta
If only a menu could be transparent when displayed on top of another menu with the menu command. This was my major attempt today. But I decided to go another route.
THanks for all the help.
