Full-Screen Backdrop

Post by PhP_94 » Sat Apr 08, 2006 2:39 pm

How can I personalize this full-fcreen backdrop (to change its color, to place a full-screen picture...)?

Check the "backdrop" property:
You can set the backdrop to an image id, or to a colour of your choice. In the IDE, you can set it to none to get rid of it.

I thought the backdrop was always on in Media? Is that not the case anymore?

Thanks

Hi Tom,

it is in the player, not the IDE.

All the best,

Malte

Malte,

Thanks, Do you also know if I am writing a library for music content whether that will work for Media users? I mean if someone has Media will they be able with the player to start using "lib___" etc. in a finished project?

Thanks,

Tom

I haven't fully tested, but using arcadeEngine in Media seems to work. So I guess if you are not using any features that are not available in Media (like Database stuff) you are good to go.

All the best,

Malte
