    Hi guys,

    Over the holidays, I finally have the chance to sit down and get stuck into Homegate and its logic engine ...

    Nice, I like it ... very flexiable ...

    Some initial Bugs :-
    If this is a repeat, slap me, but if anybody is experiencing this please let me know, oh yeah, and if there is a fix too

    1. Buttons
    no matter what graphic format I try, buttons dont seem to show there transparency layer, e.g. if I have a round button, you end up seeing the square background, usually black. Therefore I cant place my buttons over the top of my pretty graphics.

    2. Buttons again.
    This leads to another Bug, After sticking with a Black Background, so I see only the button graphic. I sometimes end up with a white underline, cant get rid off it.

    3. Status
    Click - Click shows up on my dev machine, but when I try it on the Touchscreen, the Click status, does not show ... when you touch a button.

    4. Status again.
    Linking status to a call for Module Enable. If I had a Module for every button, would not be an issue. But to save logic code, I am using SystemI/O to save code, by relating the button type to a fixed integer. Therefore if I have multiple buttons of a single type, I need only change the SystemI/O integer, and the logic code handles the rest. However, when I touch/click the button I get no status :-
    Automatic - does not work
    C-Bus Level - does not work, becuase if I enable a C-bus call, it disables my SystemI/O
    SystemI/O level - works but is no good, when I touch/Click a button, the status comes on, but all the buttons that are linked to the SystemI/O now also come on.

    It would be nice, when I select SystemI/O in Status, that I can associate the parameter with the status. e.g. Only show status, when SystemI/O 'x' is value 'y'.

    If anybody has solutions for some of these simple bugs, let me know
    Cheers


    PS: is there a public Bugzilla .... ??

    Which version ? I am assuming V3.4 for my answers below.

    Glad you like it :)

    You need to set the image to be "transparent". See the help file "Image" topic (search for "transparent images" keyword).

    What do you mean by a "white underline" ?

    Black and White or colour TouchScreen ?

    You haven't said what the button actually does to the System I/O variable nor what status you want it to display.

    This has been added to the "to do" list - item #7450

    No
