[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 494353, member: 65661"] I may be wrong, but I got the impression that text will always print on top of textures (graphic elements) regardless of the placement in the xml, unless using an overlay such as music/video overlay or dialogs that use special layers in the display, where the texture is able to hide the text in the layer below (but not in the same layer even if the text comes first in the xml). Video Window and video preview (video logo in Blue3) use the type videowindow. Which takes priority over any text or textures on the same layer (and also the media overlays) and will display on top. only when you use the OSDs and videooverlaytop that you can print on top (they use a special layer for display) I would think that animating slide and scale for the video window and video preview would be do-able, as those are similar to the posx/posY and height/width controls already used... just need some creative programming to pull off. Yup, I noticed that too. No, allowoverlay is off in those instances... the audio/video overlay code is duplicated in the actionmenu structure (with added animations to match the sliding window) - but the video preview just pops in and out when it becomes visible/invisible. I haven't gotten that far... yet .... I don't use MyRadio or Radiotime. [/QUOTE]
