I've got a GUI marked "Persistent", which has a button, which has a pic. hat GUI is shown only under special circumstances, namely when all other GUIs are off, due to a Wait command. The problem is that the button pic is GREYED-OUT, although I specified in the game's setting that I wanted to have GUIS TURN OFF when interface is disabled.

Or is it a feature? If it is, it's really making my head spin.

"Persistent" means that it will not be removed. For the behaviour you want, set the GUI to "Normal" instead.

No, you don't understand - if I set it to normal, it disappears, because I'm using Wait, which, coupled with "Turn GUIS OFF", prevents it from showing. It HAS to be persistent. The thing is, the button is greyed-out. That's the problem. If I'd want it greyed-out, I'd have checked the proper thing in the game's settings.

Actually I've worked around the problem now, by scripting with SetGameOption, but I think it's still an important point.

By the way - RawRestoreScreenTinted isn't documented in the help file.

Ah, I see what you mean. Yes that's a bug, well spotted - I'll get it fixed.

Ah, is that still in the autocomplete? It's an obsolete test function which doesn't work properly so I never officially added it.
