James,
How do I make a display fade away when the mouse is over it? I've tried
setting autohide to yes, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Setting AutoHide to Yes works for me Max - and the default load for 'more
weather' uses this type of fade - did you 'reload settings' after having
changed it ??  Also the setting for fade is used - and larger is faster -
perhaps it is too slow to notice - around 10 seems fairly responsive.


Can I make a semi-transparent display "solidify" to opaque
(reverse fade)
with a mouse hover? And have some mouse click events on that  display?

Ill leave that to James - but currently I think the display would have to
be
set to click YES and therefore intercept clicks whether it was fully opaque
or not - I think if you then clicked on a button certainly that could send
a
xAP message to alter the opacity up to whatever you needed , that would
require a click rather than mouseover though.

Kevin
