soooo I'm trying to learn more about litestep and im just wondering what is the code for autohiding modules. like is there a readme for it? id rather not just copy peoples code, and actually know how to autohide any module. any direction pointing would be grandd.

yeah thats what i do, but i had no clue where to look for the autohide feature, im trying to get a lsbox of winamp controls to autohide. is that even possible?
im pretty sure thats what i did. i practically used the code from tilt, changed a few things, locked all the controls into an xlabel and set the hotspots. im still curious where you find explanation for this code however.
oh i do have one more question tho. is there a way to alphamap the box's background and have the controls stay on top? because everytime i make "alphamap true" all the controls disappear.
yeah, thats pretty much been the bane of my existence for the past week or two, i'm trying to do an explorer emu but with vista's transparent graphics, which is proving to be all but impossible
ambulance, you can make your background image magic pink if you want it totally invisible. and the buttons will sit on top and still slide or animate or whatever.
hm, sounds interesting. how would you 'dock' it to the lsbox?
another question though. my xtaskbar has a set width for active/inactive buttons and when the text cant fit in the button it puts ellipses. I know you can take button width away, but is there a way where you can keep button width, and not have it put ellipses and just end with the last letter or are the ellipses built into the module to work that way? thanks.
