Hello,

i tried everything but nothing works and i don't know why??!!!

Here is the page where i included imagevue.swf and then i wnated to make the flash transparent. Normally no problemo!

In config.ini i changed:

bgcol = false

and in the html file i included a parameter in object and embed tag:

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

wmode="transparent"

Why it won't function with imagevue???

Edit1:
If you look closely you will see, that at first the swf-file is transparent and then comes an animation from none or white to black background color - therfore ist must have something to do with imagvue! HEEEELP!

Edit2: Solution
I edited the imagevue.fla file and changed one little thing on layer "p2" frame "6" on line "31" from

	backimagemc.mfade({_alpha:100}, 3);

to this

	backimagemc.mfade({_alpha:0}, 3);

Could someone please add f.e. "transparent" to the bgcol item in config file?! then we don't need to change the fla file...

regards Beo

Finally i have a new bug/feature.

Look at this site:
http://www.sabinekoch.eu/galerie/index.html

swf is now transparent - fine so far, but when i get to the slideshow, the thumbnailview isn't unloaded, that would be very cool if i could unload it!

Any possibilities???

Here we have an example of the saying "digging your own grave". You have removed the background, but when it is used to mask away the gallery/thumbnails in full image mode, you want it back again.

My first reaction to your request to make the background transparent, is that this is not a commonly used feature in flash. Why? Because it only supports a few browsers, and does not work on Mac. It also steals more processing power that usual. Last, I am curious as to why you need to set transparent? You can set any image background or color background cirectly in the config native to the gallery.

Im sorry to have to state the fact that the background color is set no matter what, because it is also used to mask the thumbnails in full image mode.

Hello Karl, I have the same problem.
Since a few days I have set the background of the page that hosts the Imagevue slideshow to a gradient gray:

To solve the problem, I have set the background to a jpg file that I got with a "copy&paste" of the gradient background, but as you can see the result is not completely satisfying, the boundaries are visible.

If I could set to "transparent" the background, I would be happy !

Regards,
Marco
