Source_Flow Tranparent Covers and Boxes #199

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I am trying to make some custom covers for wiiflow source flow and I am getting 
some strange results:-

I want to make Small and Large covers that display a picture of the Console 
(system emulated/wii/or custom picture) and the logo.  I do not want to see the 
spine or the reverse side of the cover and have made several covers with 
transparent backgrounds.  When I use those covers on source flow they are 
displayed with a black background (even though the image is transparent)[I will 
try to upload some pics and post link here] and also the box frame is still 
visible.  Is there any way to make the box frame transparent/invisible and have 
covers that just show the Console/system and logo with nothing else?  Also is 
it possible to lock source flow and other flows to a particular flow?  I only 
want to use the carousel type flow for all of my sources.

make sure you are using PNG images for transparency.  But I'm not sure if 
covers can have transparency other than changing the alpha but that affects 
even the non transparent parts. you could try turning off box mode for flat 
covers. and no way to lock to one sourceflow.  the only way to do that is edit 
the theme.ini so that it has only one coverflow.

Am using png images with transparent bg. What do you mean changing he alpha? 
How can I turn off box mode only for source flow? Where are source flow 
settings in theme.ini I have been through the file looking for such settings. 
Will changing source flow settings effect other flow settings e.g emu 
flow/homebrew etc?
