Subject: Re: 0.2.9 commentary
Just one explanation:
I changed this by intention. Everything that is small (i.e. smaller than a menu) is handled as dialog and generates a transparent background. Menus (i.e. everything that took the full screen in the original game) on the other hand black out the background. That is because at some point (probably far, far from today) I want our menus to scale to the full screen, so that you will not see the background with that future implementation. The current behavior just tries to be consistent with what the original intention of dialog vs. menu is.

Quote by Eiko:
Quote:Also I liked it better when the files menu came up over top of the main screen like a dialog. Now it blacks the main screen out. I prefer the previous behavior.
Did we change the behaviour?I can't remember how it was before. But don't blank the background in dialogs and menus that are smaller than the screen resolution is a valid point. --> Issue
