None

Hi group,
I have one zone with a presentation of 6 small images. The idea is that when I click (Touch event) on one of the images, it enlarges the image with a semi-transparent border.
When I click on the enlarged image, it should return to the previous state.

Problem: The transparent border is not shown, it appears as solid.

Tried:

First state video with an mp4, second state image (.png) semi-transparent border. no result
Image zone for each image: in the first state the zone is set to 1 by 1 px and not shown. After a touch event in the first state, I use “Show Zone” and “Resize Zone” to 1920x1080.
After a touch event on the enlarged image, I use “Hide Zone” and “Resize Zone” to 1 by 1.
This works, but the touch events of the other images still work through the “zone”.

Any ideas?

Thanks Karen for your response, I’ll give it a try.

I’ve already solved it by placing the images in a zone and calling them using Zone Messages. I also created a variable to block touch on the “bottom” layer (Touch ON/OFF).

This works so well that I’ve now created a language zone using the same method, allowing me to set the three languages used (Dutch/English and German) with it (transparent image with the text).
