[SOLVED] Is it possible to remove the border and background fill of a frame/vbox?

[Chekhov]

I'm trying some new things out with screens and I'm doing something where I'd like images to overlap, as well as have a 100% transparent part.

Essentially I'm building a gameboard out of non-rectangular spaces that fit into each other.

Here's an example of two pieces fitting together. However, it also creates a border around the whole thing AND a black background. I've tried to see if I can remove it, but I can't find any way to do so.

Code: Select all

screen Gameboard():
    frame:
        xpos 300 ypos 400
        vbox:
            fixed:
                xysize(200,100)
                add "tile.png" xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0

            
            fixed:
                xysize(200,100)
                xoffset -30
                add "tile.png" xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0

You need to override the default background image for frames.

Code: Select all

screen Gameboard():
    frame:
        xpos 300 ypos 400
        background None ## Set the background property to None
        vbox:
            fixed:
                xysize(200,100)
                add "tile.png" xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0

            
            fixed:
                xysize(200,100)
                xoffset -30
                add "tile.png" xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0

Also, you don’t need to use a frame at all.

How would I set the position without a frame?

NVM! I figured it out. Just put the xpos and ypos after the vbox instead. Thanks!
