Hi,
I've been trying to figure out this problem for a few hours but I haven't been successful yet...

I have a menu that contains a irregular graphic and two buttons lies in the graphic.


Each of those buttons is represented by a transparent image.
However, because button entity is represented by a rectangular area I can't approximate shape of the images.

I need to do something when player clicks on one of those buttons. However, when I try to click on the overlapping area, the button that has higher z-order receives the event even if I've clicked on the image of the opposite button.

I've tried to set the "PixelPrecise" property of the buttons on true but it didn't change anything.

Is there any convention way how to handle it in WME?


I know my description of the problem is a little confusing but I believe the image I've attached with the post is more descriptive

It didn't? It should. That property is exactly for what you describe.

It did not...Should I set something in the parent window? I've checked my images but they're really transparent (PNG files)

This is a definition of the window:

These buttons only have the "pressed" image assigned, no normal image. That will be the problem, I think.

[Mihulik]

I'll try it...

[Mihulik]

You're right. It was the problem.
Thank you
