Android Question Transparent background with clip function

[beacon]

I used Erel's round picture example. (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-xui-create-a-round-image.85102/#content)

If I make Activity.Color = xui.Color_Green it shows green behind the rounded picture, as I would expect.

If I make Activity.Color = xui.Color_Transparent it shows dark grey behind the rounded picture, as I would not expect.

I have also tested with Activity.Color, ImageView1.Color and xview.Color each set to xui.Color_Transparent.

The end result is always an opaque dark grey background behind the rounded picture.

Is this just a feature of the clip process?

Creating a transparent activity:

1. Add to manifest editor:

SetActivityAttribute(Main, android:theme, @android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar)

2.

Activity.Color = Colors.Transparent

Excellent. Thank you Erel.
