Here: https://support.touchgfx.com/docs/development/ui-development/touchgfx-engine-features/dynamic-bitmaps I can see how to set RGB 565 colours into a dynamic bitmap. I'm wondering how to achieve alpha blending in a dynamic bitmap?

Can someone tell me if/where the content that used to be in the open repository is now available? The open repository appears to have been recently wiped. https://github.com/touchgfx/touchgfx-open-repository/I'm also curious to know why it was wiped?

If I understand you correctly, you'd like to be able to access the presenter pointer from within a custom container that belongs to the relevant view class?I use this technique a lot. Basically in your custom container you just need a data member of ...

@DSwea.1 @wired Yep, it was me who put that feature request. Although it's more of a regression than a new feature as I mentioned in my post. In older versions (definitely in 4.12.3) you could see the type of the Custom Container when you select t...
