I'm updating my CCF and fishing around for some cool layouts. One I like is Tim Voegele-Downing's 9200 (from the Remote Central archive) which looks like MacOS, all brushed steel backgrounds, and metallic buttons.
So I pull it into Tonto and start to dis-assemble it. I'm not an expert here so, forgive me if this sounds a little dumb.
Each panel seems to consist of a single group, including the background. When I ungroup the panel layout, the background dissappears.
Any idea what is going on here?
Also the way in which Tim has built each panel seems to be to have a frame that has the more or less the full layout, and then to have buttons over the top that replicate some or all of what is on the frame underneath. Any idea why this appraoch was taken.
One last thing. CCF also includes multiple panels for a single device, where the panels all seem to be the same. ie DVD, DVD Repeat 1, DVD Repeat ALL. What is happening here.
Sorry, I appreciate that the last two points are CCF design related, not Tonto.
Many thanks
