How I can make transparent a Control node?

Vale-git

Hi I have this piece of ui:

The black section is a Control node SetFaction.

here my tree structure:

I want it to be transparent and I tried already to set at 0 the channel alpha in self_modulate but no avail. Any suggestions?

Thanks

You can change the style of Panel node or just remove it.

Can you provide test scene? As I understand everything outside green border and title should be transparent?

Control Nodes are transparent. They are just containers for whatever you put in them. You probably need to set a theme or a theme override to customize what you want.

Lets rephrase the problem so.. :)

From this screenshot seems I need to set transparent the window? The external border black because I can set it borderless. There is a way? The real size will be something like this:

So when this scene will be rendered it will be modal on top another scene. So the black border will be visible. And I want it to be transparent.

Here borderless on top on a green background

Ok, I think i get it now. You want transparent background in your app just like in the provided test project?

So you want the window itself to be transparent?

get_tree().get_root().set_transparent_background(true)

And make sure "Per-Pixel Transparency" is Allowed and Enabled in Project Settings.

I tried your project. Yes its what I need.

But why it don't work into mine? Linux? C#? It don't work in Control node? I set GetTree().Root.TransparentBg = true; in _Ready function like you did. But you see?:

Nothing happen... :(
