Hi, how do I make the icon that appears in the upper left of applicaiton menu to be transparent. My artist gave me an Icon.png and a IconMask.png file, which is just a negative. any ideas?

Also, how do I change the Applicaiton name heading next to Application Icon on upper left; I want it to change to indicate  what the user is doing  -- I want the application icon to stay present. Also, How do I write messages to the menu bar at the top under the application icon and MIDlet name?

thanks!

Re: MIDlet Icons
The png-icon file itself can have transpareny in it, you don't use an extra mask (unlike c++ symbian development).

The name left to the icon is the title of the screen, you can change it with Screen.setTitle(string)

Re: MIDlet Icons
I've got similar problem - beside of transparency, I need the icons to be centered in phone menu. It works well, except of Symbian phones. Symbian put the icon on the left side  Sad

And how I could make a transparent PNG ? I was trying it with Corel Photo Paint, but I didn't manage it...

Re: MIDlet Icons
hi!
for set icons on the phone menu, you should set the setting in the emulator in setting option then go for MIDlets click on and now set the icons with edit(after select particuler Menu Name icon) then give the path name with icon name( if you store icon in the res folder then give directly /icon.png ).
