Table 13-2 Elements on the Transparency Page
Element Description
Transparency
Browser Alpha Channel
Transparency/Opacity
(0-255)
Note Although this setting might look identical to a setting described in the “Adjust TVzilla Settings”
section, they are different. Y
ou use this setting to configure transparency for the HTML content plane.
The amount of transparency that you configure for all content that your DMP shows on the HTML
plane. The HTML plane and the video plane can overlap and you will see the video content plane
through the HTML content pane if both of the following are true:
• You show video content and HTML content simultaneously.
• The HTML content plane touches any of the same x-axis and y-axis coordinates that the video
content plane touches.
Values can range from 0 to 255, where:
• 0 — The HTML content plane is completely hidden and only the video content plane is visible.
• 128 — The HTML plane overlays the video plane and content is equally visible on both planes.
• 255 — The video content plane is completely hidden and only the HTML content plane
is visible.
Note When the HTML content plane contains a graphic that is already partially transparent in its own right
(so that, for example, its rounded edges look smooth against the background color), that kind of transparency
pertains only to interaction between that graphic and other objects on the same plane. If you then change
the Browser Transparency value to 255, for example, that does not mean you will be able to see the video plane
through the partially transparent graphic on the HTML content plane; in that case, the video plane is still completely
hidden, as expected.
