Clicked hotspots on transparent images

[Jetar]

Well, I've got another question.

I've got screen with an imagemap, which has ground and hover images. Ground and hover images are mostly transparent. I need to set some transparent area of that images as a hotspot. Or some kind of button. But, as I see, RenPy disallow that because it recognises as hover and clicked area only non-transparetn part of the image.

So please give me some advice. What ca I implement to get transparent image part to be clickable?

The alpha property used by imagemaps is set on True by default, but you can set it to False.

(You can check all the properties in the documentation https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens. ... p#imagemap )

Code: Select all

imagemap:
    alpha False

Thank you.

This option is good, but it turns my hard-shaped buttons into rectangulars. Thats not good. I've decided just to put some color filling with low opacity on my idle/hover images, so renpy's alpha algorythms will recognize needed areas.

I think, next time I will use imagebuttons with hover alpha functions.

Yes, that was one of the reasons, why I had to drop imagemaps and transition to imagebuttons. Hope this will be the only issue you encounter.
