Is it possible to make the background invisible in an flash desktop application?

Hey there,
I am currently trying to build a small desktop application in flash which works a bit like the scmpoo sheep (scmpoo - Cute little lamb / sheep on your desktop - YouTube). A screenmate with just a few animations and a movieclip tied together in as3.
My problem now is, that the animated animal should a least look like it really moves on the users desktop, since I found no way to really place it there.
I already set it to fullscreen mode, which removes the borders but I can't find a way to make the backgound invisible/transparent. In web-browsers this seems to be quite easy, but does it work for the desktop flash at all?
And if yes, how do I do it?
thanks for helping

window style: custom chrome (transparent);

  • Is it possible to make the background of an image transparent in indesign?

    is it possible to make the background of an image transparent in indesign?

    It's not necessarily the best way, but depending on the image content, you might be able to get an acceptable result with the options under Object > Clipping Path...
    EDIT: So technically, the answer to your question is: No, but you can apply a clipping path to hide the background.
    Also, again depending on the image content, as well as the underlying content, it might be possible to use blend modes in the Effects panel to render the background transparent.
    Background removal is best done in Photoshop, where the image can then be saved as .PSD and its native transparency will be honored when placed in InDesign.

  • Can we make the jobs invisible in SM37

    Hi All,
    Can we make the background  jobs invisible in SM37.
    If we run our current report in production, it will schedule around 1000 jobs in SM37.
    My requirement is to make these 1000 jobs invisible....

    i think and extension can do..just before producing the report[program for SM37] output clear the table entries.
    for this u need to change the standard code..
    but haven't checked its possible or not.. i means exits available or not...
    rather i would say.. copy SM37's program to a Z program.. do this requirement... create a tcode say ZSM37 for it..
    then this ZSM37 can solve your purpose.

  • Is There a Way to Make the Background App Be Useable?

    Hi. Is there a way to make the background useable? For example, you have a fullscreen only app in the background and you want/wanted (which is the correct grammar btw, those who're native speakers and why?) and you have Safari for some tutorial, is there a way to access the background app (for example if it's a drawing app you're learning).
    It is possible I guess if the background is/was (which is the correct grammar again btw and why) was resizable.
    Thanks in advance.
    Gbu.

    Another way to be able to get to the tutorial in Safari would be to double-click the titlebar of the drawing app's window. Doing that should minimize it, dropping it into the Dock, thus making the Safari window visible. You can bring the drawing back up and front by clicking its icon in the Dock.
    I can see a lot of confusion happening if it were possible to have the top window inactive and one in the back of it active. One would have to be really alert as to which window was the active one, to avoid something happening in the wrong place. I'm glad it doesn't work that way.
    As far as the drawing app not behaving in accordance with Apple's guidlines re full-screen windows, well, that's on the publisher of the program. Apple publishes developer guidelines for a reason.

  • How to make the buttons INVISIBLE in the Application toolbar

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to create a button in the Application toolbar of the Module Pool Screen. The field should be made Invisible by default. and it should be displayed based on one condition.
    Could you please let me know how to make that particular button INVISIBLE. I think we can make it invisible by using EXCLUDING statement. But, How to make the button VISIBLE again when the check is satisfied.
    I found from the portal that the FM 'VIEW_SET_PF_STATUS' can be used to make a button INVISIBLE. Could anyone help me out how to pass the parameters to this Function module?
    or is there any Function Module available to make the button VISIBLE and INVISIBLE? Please help me on this issues.
    Is there any possibility to make the button VISIBLE or INVISIBLE as we do for the screen fields using LOOP AT SCREEN..?
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards.
    Paddu.

    Hi,
    Try to use below in the PBO module status_0100 OUTPUT.
    DATA t_fcode TYPE TABLE OF sy-ucomm.
    refresh t_fcode[].
    APPEND 'Function code name of the button' TO t_fcode. 
    Check the condition here for which you want to make field visible.
        DELETE FCODE of the button from T_FCODE table
      ENDIF.
      SET PF-STATUS 'STATUS_0100' EXCLUDING t_fcode.

  • Is it possible to have the background colour of a field change based on the entry?

    I previously obtained help from a user here to create a script that autopopulates a field based on options selected in two sets of radio buttons:
    var consequence = this.getField("Consequence").valueAsString; 
    var likelihood = this.getField("Likelihood").valueAsString; 
    if (consequence=="Insignificant" && likelihood=="Rare") event.value = "Low"; 
    else if (consequence=="Insignificant" && likelihood=="Unlikely") event.value = "Low";
    else if (consequence=="Insignificant" && likelihood=="Moderate") event.value = "Low";
    else if (consequence=="Insignificant" && likelihood=="Likely") event.value = "Low";
    else if (consequence=="Insignificant" && likelihood=="Almost Certain") event.value = "Moderate"; 
    else if (consequence=="Minor" && likelihood=="Rare") event.value = "Low"; 
    else if (consequence=="Minor" && likelihood=="Unlikely") event.value = "Low";
    else if (consequence=="Minor" && likelihood=="Moderate") event.value = "Moderate";
    else if (consequence=="Minor" && likelihood=="Likely") event.value = "Moderate";
    else if (consequence=="Minor" && likelihood=="Almost Certain") event.value = "High"; 
    else if (consequence=="Moderate" && likelihood=="Rare") event.value = "Low"; 
    else if (consequence=="Moderate" && likelihood=="Unlikely") event.value = "Moderate";
    else if (consequence=="Moderate" && likelihood=="Moderate") event.value = "High";
    else if (consequence=="Moderate" && likelihood=="Likely") event.value = "High";
    else if (consequence=="Moderate" && likelihood=="Almost Certain") event.value = "Critical"; 
    else if (consequence=="Major" && likelihood=="Rare") event.value = "Low"; 
    else if (consequence=="Major" && likelihood=="Unlikely") event.value = "Moderate";
    else if (consequence=="Major" && likelihood=="Moderate") event.value = "High";
    else if (consequence=="Major" && likelihood=="Likely") event.value = "Critical";
    else if (consequence=="Major" && likelihood=="Almost Certain") event.value = "Extreme"; 
    else if (consequence=="Catastrophic" && likelihood=="Rare") event.value = "Moderate"; 
    else if (consequence=="Catastrophic" && likelihood=="Unlikely") event.value = "High";
    else if (consequence=="Catastrophic" && likelihood=="Moderate") event.value = "Critical";
    else if (consequence=="Catastrophic" && likelihood=="Likely") event.value = "Extreme";
    else if (consequence=="Catastrophic" && likelihood=="Almost Certain") event.value = "Extreme";
    // etc. 
    else event.value = ""; 
    I'm wondering if its possible to have the colour of the field that uses the above script, change based on the entry. E.g. If the answer is Low; make the background colour Green; if its Moderate, make it orange etc.?
    I know its a big ask but thought I would check.
    Thanks in advance.

    One approach would be to have access to a Mac that can run the classic environment or has a pre OS X native installation. These should be able to read the files for dates of creation/modification. There is also SheepShaver that runs on OS X machines.

    When talking about a specific image posting the image may be useful.
    One can use a Layer Mask and add a white Layer underneath.

    I have been able to change the cellBackgroundDesign from Transparent o fill1 etc and this change is visible in the desktop application.
    But whenever; I am running this application in Mobile Device, the color change is not visible.
    Also, there is an earlier post given by me for changing the color of rows in Table UI in SAP SRS Mobile Device Enabled.

  • How do you make the background of an object transparent in Adobe Illustrator?

    Hello Forum.
    How do you make the background of an object transparent in Adobe Illustrator?
    I have been having issues with using the Magic Wand tool in Adobe Illustrator as well as the lasso tool.
    Basically, I am trying to put a small graphic into a new Illustrator file.
    The first thing I tried to do is to use the magic wand tool.  But I found out that this did not work on a jpeg image since it did not have any individual objects to select.
    So I tried something new.  I opened the file in Adobe Photoshop and used the lasso tool to select an area.  Then I coped this area.  Then I tried to paste it into Adobe Illustrator.  But the background was not transparent for the pasted image.
    How do I make the background transparent.
    I made this small video to show what I am talking about:
    http://youtu.be/2LgMGEF6z10

    Don't Copy/Paste the image.
    Make it transparent in Photoshop, save a PSD and place it in Illustrator

  • How can I make the background inactive when I show a popup in Windows phone 8.1..?

    I have created a popup in Windows phone 8.1. But the user can click buttons in the background. Can I disable this feature of popup...ie. I want the background to be unresponsive when popup is shown.
        How to achieve this....? 

    There are a couple ways to do this:
    If you set popup.IsLightDismissed = true, when the user taps the background, the background will be unresponsive when the user taps the background. HOWEVER, tapping the background will cause the popup to disappear immediately.
    When you open your popup, you can set Window.Current.Content.IsHitTestVisible = false, that should make the background untappable. However, you'll need to set .IsHitTestVisible back to true once the popup is closed, otherwise your app will be unresponsive
    until the user closes and restarts it. You can subscribe to the popup.Closed event to tell when the popup is closed.

  • Can you make the background fade in?

    I know you can do slide transition> Fade In, but that includes all objects. I can select individual objects and make them fade in as well.
    Is there a way to make the background fade ONLY.

    The background IS transparent, or, to look at another way, there is no background unless you create one. If you go to View>Show Transparency Grid, it's easier to see a what has a white fill or stroke and what does not.

  • How do you make the background all one color without disturbing the subjects?

    I shot a wedding this past weekend.  Where the bridal party walked in there was an acrhway with christmas lights as the only lights.  It made the background all splotchy.  I have tried the paintbrush tool, but only preset choices, such a textures and such.  Won't help.  I need to work around people and make the background all one color.  I've tried using a vignette, but it made it too dark, and when you lighten the exposure you see all the splotches.  Does anyone have any advice.  I am in a  jam, I want the colors to be uniform for all the bridal party....and not look like someone threw paint on the wall.  HELP PLEASE!
    I'm using Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.

    You'll need to post an example so we can figure out the best way.
