I have not had an opportunity to recreate the problem in a smallish project, but I have had similar issues. #FF00, in some circumstances, behaves as fully transparent rather than black, but #FF01 is near-black.

Well if anyone has this problem if you set say #9900 you just get a back bg... but if you put #9901 it works... some reason it doesn't like the zeros? well that's how it is I guess..

[android-developers] Re: Transparency on Views behaving differently in 1.5
I'm having a similar issue, except that I have an activity on top of another with AndroidManifest.xml declaring android:theme=@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar When I set the background color to #8800 in Android 1.1 it works nicely giving a darker transparancy... and in Android 1.5 once in a while it decides not to work making the background all back and no longer transperant. Any ideas why this happens? -Moto! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Does this change happen with the current binary of your app, or after you recompile it against 1.5? This happens only when I recompile it against 1.5 and run it in the emulator.

[android-developers] Re: Transparency on Views behaving differently in 1.5
I can't think of anything that could have changed here -- there is really nothing special the view hierarchy does in this case, it is just drawing the views on on top of the other in Z-order. And we certainly have transparent background working in many other places, such as the background image used for buttons etc. Does this change happen with the current binary of your app, or after you recompile it against 1.5? On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 12:32 PM, Chister Nordvik cnord...@gmail.comwrote: Hi! I have a lot of Views where I have set a background image on the top LinearLayout and then I have nested a new linear layout below with a background that is semi-transparent. This works great in 1.1, but in 1.5 the transparency is just disregarded and this breaks my app as the text on top is now unreadable. Is this a bug or a feature? Is there a better way of doing this?
