Thread: First post and a question.

  1. Default First post and a question.

    Hi,

    This is my first post here on these forums.
    I'm not someone who visits forums that regularly but I will try and help as much as I can when there are questions that I know something about :)

    I do have one question myself though and I was hoping some of you fs gurus could help me out :)

    Somewtimes when I make or alter a panel then either in the main window or the fixed views there appears a line on the right side or the botom of the screen that is not covered by the bitmap in use. So I see the scenery going by in that one pixel wide line.
    Is there something I can do about this and how ?

    Thanks in advance,

    Regards,

    Welcome! Concerning transparency on panel background bitmaps I blieve there are some pixel graphics software that automatically add a pure black (RGB 0,0,0) border around the pics eddited with it. What programs do you use for painting?
    To get rid of such transparent borders use another graphics program and fill in the 0,0,0 black either with what was originally there or with a slightly lighter shade of black like 5,5,5 to make it opaque again.
    In a lot of FS texturing pure black is defined as being transparent.

    Make certain that the width in panel.cfg is specified as 8192...
