GUI Background Suggestion

[Darth Mandarb]

I think it would be nice to have the ability to remove a background image from the GUI.

Right now if you select to use a background image in a GUI you can't revert to having no background.  The only way I've found to do it is to duplicate a sprite and select it as the background, then delete that sprite from the Sprite Manager, then double-click (in the GUI properties window) the background image option.  It gives an error then loads the sprite manager to select a background, then I hit escape and I'm back to (none) in the background slot.  So I suggest something like this:

When you click on the little box with an X (the Xbox?) it would just clear out the background for the GUI.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned.

You can just select sprite number 0 to clear the BG

Ahhh ... well that's not very obvious.  

Maybe it would be better to have something like I suggested or even just make it so you can manually enter the number rather than having the sprite manager pop up like it does.  So you could just select the field and enter a number.  And the little button could be used to access the Sprite Manager (like it functions now).

Almost every property in AGS can be set to "None" by setting it to the value of 0, such as talking loops and object sprite slots.

I appreciate that it's not particularly obvious how to do this, but it does actually say:


I'll add it to my list to add a better way though.
