Alternate Style Lables - Gordons HQ - 01-10-2010

This is just a minor point about lables, I mean town names and the like.
When playing scenarios I like to leave them on most of the time as it gives me a feel of realism. However often when doing this you can sometimes hide a unit under them which can be a little annoying.
The problem is the white boxes that the lables are in blocking out things underneath.
I was wondering if it was possible to still have the lables without these background white boxes.
HPS PzC do something similar by having an option of alt lables.
I suppose this should really be addressed first to Jason to see if it is doable.

Cheerscheers

That's a pretty good idea, and one Jason and team should look at. I think they just need to make the white box somewhat transparent and my hunch is it's pretty easy to do. However, some of my "This shouldn't be hard, right guys?" to programmers has been greeted with a silent :eek1:. So, maybe not.

Excellent idea, will look into it to see if it can be done.
