Re: [pygtk] How to set pixmap-transparency?
When you create your pixmap, use the color value of None where ever you want the transparency. In your code call pixmap, mask = gtk.create_pixmap_from_xpm(...) Then use that combination when setting the pixmap for a widget, drawing with it, etc. I think you're not getting my point here. I'm creating a pixmap with: pixmap=create_pixmap(widget,width,height,-1) then I create my mask with: mask=create_pixmap(widget,width,height,1) I then draw the text in the colours I want (these are parsed on runtime) with: first: draw_rectangle(mask,widget.get_style().black_gc,TRUE,0,0,width,height) and then draw_text(mask,font,widget.get_style().white_gc,2,14,string) And then the same for the pixmap only with the prober colours. I'm not loading anything. So, does anyone know how to go about getting transparency? Fingers crossed.. ;) (and not anywere near as pissed as I may sound, actually quite jolly... sorta) Christian Storgaard / Cybolic - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk

Or maybe come up with another way to implement colour-formatting in CList (styling (weight,slant) is something I'm trying to do too, btw.) ANY help is much appreciated. If you want transparency, you simply need to set up a mask bitmap. Parts of the mask bitmap with pixel value 0 (black) are transparent, and parts with value 1 (white) are opaque.

The pixmap -i'm using is made with depth set to -1, this should work right? I previously made the mask with depth 1, now I tried with -1, still doesn't work. It exits with: Gdk-ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) serial 646 error_code 8 request_code 56 minor_code 0 If you want transparency, you simply need to set up a mask bitmap. Parts of the mask bitmap with pixel value 0 (black) are transparent, and parts with value 1 (white) are opaque. What do you mean by pixel value? And what is the correct way to make a bitmap (ie. not a pixmap). Up until now I've tried making the mask by drawing the excact same graphics on it as on the pixmap, only using black and white. This doesn't work. Im a bit confused here ;) Christian Storgaard / Cybolic - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk
Re: [pygtk] How to set pixmap-transparency?
Follow up: I just tried making the mask with depth set to 1, now there IS transparency (and no crashing), but the transparency seems VERY random (read: corrupted). What am I doing wrong?
