Help needed...

I am writing an option dialogue for fading and am using a button with the following code;

Option.OOCMOIcon=Turbine.UI.Button()
Option.OOCMOIcon :SetPosition ( 52,22 )
Option.OOCMOIcon :SetSize ( 32,32 )
Option.OOCMOIcon :SetOpacity ( self.Data.oocmo )
Option.OOCMOIcon :SetParent ( Option.faderbox )
Option.OOCMOIcon :SetBackground ( 0x4100883e )

Why does it always remain at full opacity?

I think :SetOpacity only works on windows for some reason

Because you can't change the opacity of the button itself, you have to wrap it in a Turbine.UI.Window (i.e. set one as the button's parent) and change the opacity of the Window.

Damn it... I suspected as much.
It is already bound to a window and I don't want multiple ones - Thanks anyway guys! Back to the drawing board!

Oh it seems you can change the opacity of other controls
elem:SetStretchMode(3)

of course this can cause other problems like the control no longer being masked to it's parent and seems to ignore the z-order

Where did you get the info on setstretchmode? I haven't been able to find any documentation anywhere!
