[Mr ChriZ]

I've successfully made a bitmap for the Frame for dialoug's etc.
I used the following line in the Main.XML

<Entry Name="DialogBack" Bitmap="Frame_Back.png" Margins="5,5,5,5" TransColor="FF00FF" DrawMode="REGION_E_VSTRETCH" />

I would like to try doing the same with the Lists
<Entry Name="ListBack" Bitmap="Frame_Back.png" Margins="5,5,5,5" TransColor="FF00FF" DrawMode="REGION_E_VSTRETCH" />

At the moment it doesn't work.   Would this be possible?

[Mr ChriZ]

Along with this request, I'd also request exactly the same thing for the tree
as well.
This would allow effects like seen in the following Windows scheme
http://www.wincustomize.com/zoom.aspx?skinid=5914&libid=1

Which uses a Carbon Fibre style look, with semi transparent effects above it...

On another note, scrollbars are the most difficult thing to skin ever.
This must be my 10th attempt at getting them right...
I'm happier with the handle again but the arrows... very difficult.

List backgrounds are not supported.

Tree::Background is already supported, but only in trees. (the main program tree isn't actually a tree)

However, we'll make the next build use Tree::Background for the main tree as well if it exists.

[Mr ChriZ]

Sounds good =)

[Mr ChriZ]

I can't seem to get the background to Tile.
Is this possible? I've not used tiling elsewhere so I could be doing it wrong.
