Transparency

Browser Alpha Channel Note

Although this setting might look identical to a setting described in the “Adjusting

Transparency/Opacity

Embedded Browser Settings” section on page 2-4, they are different. You use this setting to

(0-255)

configure transparency for the HTML content plane.

The amount of transparency that you configure for all content that your DMP shows on the HTML plane. The HTML plane and the video plane can overlap and you will see the video content plane through the HTML content pane if both of the following are true:

You show video content and HTML content simultaneously.

The HTML content plane touches any of the same x-axis and y-axis coordinates that the video content plane touches.

Values can range from 0 to 255, where:

0 — The HTML content plane is completely hidden and only the video content plane is visible.

128 — The HTML plane overlays the video plane and content is equally visible on both planes.

255 — The video content plane is completely hidden and only the HTML content plane is visible.

Note If the HTML content plane contains a graphic that is already partially transparent in its own right (so that, for example, its rounded edges look smooth against the background color), that kind of transparency pertains only to interaction between that graphic and other objects on the same plane. If you then change the Browser Transparency value to 255, for example, that does not mean you will be able to see the video plane through the partially transparent graphic on the HTML content plane; in that case, the video plane is still completely hidden, as expected.

Specifying the URL to Show on the HTML Content Plane

You can load a web page or other content on the HTML content plane.

Step 1 In the Display Actions list, click URL to be Displayed.

Step 2 Enter or edit the HTTP URL, as described in Table 2-12, then click Go.

Step 3 (Optional) To stop showing the specified content, do one of the following:

Click .

Enter an HTTP URL that points to different content, then click Go.

The HTTP URL that you enter persists until you use this procedure again to enter a different URL or until the next time that you restart your DMP. You cannot save the URL entry so that it persists after a restart.
