Title: Transparent Cropmark Overlays
Post by: 20pictures on January 31, 2016, 09:37:29 PM
I have been following the ML Wiki guide on how to make cropmarks for LiveView overlays on my Canon 5DmkII.
http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Cropmarks (http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Cropmarks)
...but nothing produces a transparent mask. Is this a deprecated feature? :(

I noticed others have been using stripes to create a shaded mask ...this, however, creates, irritating moires!

This should help:


#define COLOR_TRANSPARENT_BLACK 0x03
#define COLOR_TRANSPARENT_GRAY  0x14 // not portable, old cameras show it as magenta


(that's why color 20 did not work)
