Transparent buttons ?
Just a quick question (I don't have time now to try this out).
Is it possible to create a button with no graphic assigned to it, so it is basically a transparent box ?
The idea I have is, I currently have two timers for my tribute.
I was wondering if I could create two new buttons that were transparent, place them directly over these timers, and have them as the activate/deactivate buttons.
Does that make sense ?
Anyone done this ?
If not I'll go ahead and give it a try once I get a little more time.
Thanks.

Yes. It can be done. I use transparent buttons in a few places in my UI. You will need to declare a full button template, but can either use an actual image with transparency or simply declare a dummy image template that references a non-existing graphic file.
Be advised, with the tribute activate buttons, the text is hardcoded to the button. It is not possible to remove the Activate / Deactivate text. Therefore, you most likely will not be able to read the timer underneath it. I tried the same thing with those buttons.
