HUD Layering Order

[ErrorNull]

Is there a way freely control HUDs to be in front or behind other HUDs that are on screen?

Anyone know? To clarify a bit more.. I am creating a new hud but don't know how (or if even possible) to make the main background image of my HUD display 'behind' the hotbar. My main hud image always overlay on top and covers the hotbar.

So instead I have to carve out cute little holes in my hud image for where the hotbar inventory slots will reside.

It's a fine workaround, but not elegant.

Well I'm no expert on HUDs, But you can try making the hotbar boxes translucent.

or the "cute little holes"

hi christian9, yea that's what i ended up doing was just cut out those holes (the white boxes in hud_sample.png) so that the hotbar will then show through it (hud_screenshot2.png). It would be better if there's a way to simply tell the hotbar to always display 'in front' of my hudbar background image.
