use this code instead of VLF.DrawFrame()

VLF.UpdateFocus()
VLF_BG:activate()
VLF_BG:draw(-3,-3,484,275)
VLF.Draw_Waves(0,0,70)

Thanks! :)

**mootjeuh** · 05-07-2009, 08:11 AM

question: what does that transparency function do anyway ?

**LXD** · 05-08-2009, 12:50 PM

the image transparency is used in several functions
e.g.
VLF.FadeObjects()
fades the objects (images)

VLF.Draw_Waves()
sets the wave transparency

VLF.GetBG()
adjusts the wave transparency

VLF.DrawFocus()
allows for the focus (animation)

...

BTW:The HM edition is about 60% done it should be ready next week.

**mootjeuh** · 05-16-2009, 04:13 AM

**mootjeuh** · 06-11-2009, 01:38 PM
