Will android runtime support changing of semi translucency of actives?

[BrashMonkey]

Hi,

Currently the Android runtime does not support changing of the semi translucency of actives. Will this be supported in a future build?

Same goes for volume changing for sound samples.

thanks

Semi-transparency should work already in Beta 8.

I'm using beta 8 and I get this error report when I try to build my game. IF I have to use the OTHER controls for opacity, please let users know. is that the case? And what about sound volume?

You have to use the semi-transparency option, not alpha. Also, volume doesn't work yet.

This was made clear the other 2 or 3 times you asked, in which I personally answered at least twice. Use semi-transparency. The others do not work, and will not work.

Actually, both should work in beta 8 - MMF is wrongly refusing to build when those events are present. I guess this will be fixed in beta 9, but for now you'll be limited to the semi-transparency under "Compatibility".
