[FM22] Background Selector

[giglet13]

I've managed to add this before but I've got a couple of issues, may be a simple re-direct but not found the specific bit im struggling with in any guides so far.

- Added Global Panels 

- Added Background Selector Config from Other Skins

- Added Graphics Background Numbered to match the Background Selector

What code, and where in an existing Client_object_browser do I need to add? I have tried taking from previous ones but It's not working so assume its either slightly wrong or i've added in the wrong order. 

Also on FM22 specifically, the Sidebar is transparent and main block / UI isnt. Once I get the background selector working, do I just follow from here to adjust that transparency accordingly - 

Or can I add a transparency selector like in previous years for this area? (If so any signposts for guides on this would also be great)

Ok I've successfully done th is, for others (probably a little bit of a fudge) the file is below for this set up on the Panels

This text was added to enable to selector :

<container file="background_selector/backgrounds" >
 <attachment class="test_multiple_globals_attachment" default_value="false">
 <list id="get_properties">
 <record get_property="MatS" test_mode="equal" value="true" skip_if_null="true" />
 <record get_property="Ma3D" test_mode="equal" value="true" comparison_mode="or" skip_if_null="true" />
          </list>
  <integer id="set_property" value="hidn" />
 </attachment>
 </container>
<!--overlay-->
<widget class="picture" file="backgrounds/overlay/30" scale_picture="true">
<boolean id="keep_aspect_ratio" value="false" />
 </widget>

Then this code, much further down alongside the area the Backroom Advice popups are added:

<!-- Graphics Options-->
                                <widget class="menubar_icon_button" appearance="buttons/custom/interface/navigation bar/button1" cant_be_toggled="true" fixed="true" icon="icons/26px/bs" width="40">
                                    <record id="primary_icon_properties" red_replacement="heffem" />
                                    <record id="secondary_icon_properties" red_replacement="heffem" />
                                    <event id="click_event" event_id="kev3" />
                                    <attachment class="event_relay_attachment" event_id="kev3">
                                        <record id="action_event">
                                            <flags id="event_id" value="show" />
                                            <flags id="event_target" value="bgs1" />
                                        </record>
                                    </attachment>
                                </widget>
 

This achieves the Background selector positioned as per screenshot below beneath the continue button:

As long as you've then set up a background selector folder/configs, the Global Panels and Backgrounds themselves numbered appropriately - all good.

The Vince Skin has a good base of files if you want a start guide from there 

[<<Macaco-RJ88>>]

is it possible to have a background picture for specific panels?

for example: i am using the light base skin and for now, i would like to have the team stadium picture only  in the background of the squad view panel.

could anyone help me with that?
