Nextion LCDs... How to comunicate ???

[CuriousOne]

Great. I've quit reading N&V a decade ago - too many ads and too many nonsense articles, hope they've changed that....

Can't figure out, how to make textbox background transparent - when I set it to "image" it gives error during compile...

[Ioannis]

In the sta attribute select crop image

[CuriousOne]

Yes and it immediately gives an error after that.

There is a new version 0.59. Which version you have?

After you select "crop image" a new box will appear in Attributes called "picc". Click on it, click "browse", then select your background image.

[CuriousOne]

Yes, I got it working, but in a weird way.

Say I have some background picture, which I place on background layer.
Then I have textbox above it. Located at specified place.
I have to crop background picture in editor, in a such way, that it fits the area occupied by textbox.
Then use that cropped picture as textbox background.

There is simply no way to make text background "transparent".
