Font opacity not adjusting properly?

[TexDanny]

Hi,

I've just been messing arround trying to create a hud group that would be almost invisible (5-10% opacity) to use the lower opacity until mouse over feature. However, everything goes out the window when font opacity doesn't work. Any ideas? Is this a known bug?

Regards,

The slider for the opacity when you're not moused over the group when using Lower Opacity Until Mouseover is on the Hud -> Edit Hud Options -> General Settings -> Advanced page. If you set that all the way to Clear (or very nearly so) it should lower all opacity including that of the text when your mouse is not over the group. The slider on the Group Properties area next to Background is just the opacity for the group background so that you can have a totally transparent background with solid text.
