Transparency only works on my primary monitor.whats up with that! the labels are black on my second monitor but transparnet onmy primary monitor.


IS there a fix to this module? or can litestep not cope with 2 monitors?




Thanks for anyone input

It's more likely the label cannot cope with 2 monitors. That's my 2 cents :)

I (don't use multiple monitors but) conjecture that Label has trouble drawing outside of the desktop (I remember that sort of behavior, but I'm using xLabel now, and it doesn't show at all outside of the desktop). Maybe it's a result of either loading it before or after the desktop module...

But if it is a desktop problem, did you try (configuring) jdesk-0.711?

Ok, I see. This is a bug in label, its PaintDesktopEx only works on the primary monitor. (assuming you don't have it set to use true transparency, then that wouldn't matter)

what I have right now is all my labels on my primary monitors set to transparent but all the one on my second monitor I left transparency off............. OK if I am stuck with that can you at least help me with this square bmp at the top left of my primary monitor its just showing my label bmp a the top

You've got a spare label someplace that you haven't set the position for.
