Transparency of a jsui object is not currently available. This is something which will happen at some point in the future though.

If you declare an attribute, it automatically appears in the js/jsui inspector:

var foo = 74; declareattribute(foo);

Too bad, is there a way to find out the colour a jsui is sitting on? The I could do a fake transparency...

I tried this and simply added:

declareattribute(vbrgb); declareattribute(vfrgb); declareattribute(vrgb2);

and yes they show up, but instead of the attribute name I see the default values, not too helpful as description, and when changing them they don't seem to pass the values...

And if it would work, it would be nice if the examples of all these jsui examples in the help file reflect this. Then it would not be necessary to define the colours with arguments...

suckhah? If you need real transparency, you can also send commands to lcd.

Here's an example. It display toto and bgcolor as attribute name in the inspector. bgcolor is saved with the patcher.

var toto = 74; var bgcolor = [ 1., 1., 0.6, 0.8 ];

declareattribute("toto"); declareattribute("bgcolor", null, null, 1);

function bang() { post(toto, "n"); post(bgcolor, "n");

}

Did transparency in jsui ever happen? Is it still planned?

It will happen eventually, but I don't see it happening in a foreseeable future. In the meantime, lcd (or C, with jgraphics) can do transparency.

Hi, anything new on this over the past three years?

Thanks!

Hi :) with mgraphics you can use transparency in jsui
