Nick,

Should be no problem at all. Use a value of 553648127 for transparent. A good, bright yellow would be 65535.

Dave, I might have not worded this correctly. What I want to to set the background of a CC button to "Transparent" AND "Bright Yellow" at the SAME TIME. (I want it to appear Bright Yellow and still be transparent. (This would visually look like lite (button) is turned on). Also want a "Transparent" AND A"Dimmer yellow" at the same time (representing a DIMMED lite (Button). Is this possible????

Likely not, but Dave can confirm.

Nick,

Ive got you now. Unfortunately, no...PowerBuilder (the language PowerHome is written in) does not support any form of translucency.

You may be achieve the effect you like by placing a couple of pictures (matching the background picture if necessary) with the appropriate shades of yellow underneath the CC button and then use the ph_ccmodify function to toggle the visibility of the pictures.

If you had a screenshot you could post or send me and a brief description of the button you wish to see transparent, I'll take a look and ascertain if it's doable.

Dave.
