Problem description:
So I'm working on an interface and I'm having troubles with the *button* appearance. I made a custom image for a button via Photoshop and I can't get to convert the default backgrounds color to alpha.

Any solutions to this issue?
Only the window in interface has an alpha. All have a transparency setting, and even then it may not work for all types. Sorry.

An alternative to changing the alpha is to have the button element larger than necessary, and set to pushbox-flat (and the background/foreground colours set to default) - this means there's no outline when clicking it.

The photoshop image should therefore have the button itself, and the background included (as little as possible of course). If you want to have an on-press animation, create that image as well, and have it change as necessary.

Alternatively, if you're trying to place the button on the map, you'd be better off using obj datums and screen_loc.
