Description
I have a ili9341 16-bit color display, how can I display a transparent color on it?
What MCU/Processor/Board and compiler are you using?
ESP32
What do you want to achieve?
I want to achieve a picture with a transparent color
What have you tried so far?
I turned the image into a True color chroma key C array, which is a disordered line on the display, and it doesn’t display properly.
Code to reproduce
Add a code snippet which can run in the simulator. It should contain only the relevant code that compiles without errors when separated from your main code base.
The code block(s) should be formatted like:
/*You code here*/
Screenshot and/or video
If possible, add screenshots and/or videos about the current state.
“Doesn’t display properly” is not enough information for us to diagnose the issue. A screenshot would be helpful. Does it work with regular True color mode or True color with alpha mode?
I converted the image to a true color chroma keyed format and imported it into the project. The code is as follows:
LV_IMG_DECLARE(test)
void create(){
lv_obj_t *test_image = lv_img_create(lv_disp_get_scr_act(NULL), NULL);
lv_img_set_src(test_image, &test);
}
test.c (866.4 KB)

It seems that there are only white lines, and only part of it
my lv_conf.h is like this
#define LV_COLOR_DEPTH 32
#define LV_COLOR_16_SWAP 0
#define LV_COLOR_SCREEN_TRANSP 1
#define LV_COLOR_TRANSP LV_COLOR_LIME
#define LV_ANTIALIAS 1
#define LV_DISP_DEF_REFR_PERIOD 30 /*[ms]*/
#define LV_DPI 100 /*[px]*/
typedef int16_t lv_coord_t;
/*=========================
Memory manager settings
*=========================*/
#define LV_MEM_CUSTOM 1
#if LV_MEM_CUSTOM == 0
# define LV_MEM_SIZE (32U * 1024U)
# define LV_MEM_ATTR
# define LV_MEM_ADR 0
# define LV_MEM_AUTO_DEFRAG 1
#else /*LV_MEM_CUSTOM*/
# define LV_MEM_CUSTOM_INCLUDE <stdlib.h> /*Header for the dynamic memory function*/
# define LV_MEM_CUSTOM_ALLOC malloc /*Wrapper to malloc*/
# define LV_MEM_CUSTOM_FREE free /*Wrapper to free*/
#endif /*LV_MEM_CUSTOM*/
Why did you set LV_COLOR_DEPTH 32 if you have a 16 bit display?
Does the other drawings work well? Buttons, labels, etc.
Next time please format your code like this:

Is it possible to display a transparent PNG image on a 16-bit color depth display? I put an image button on the background image, I want it to appear to be partially transparent.
You should be able to display transparent images on any color depth within LittlevGL, but you can’t draw a background with another library and then have LittlevGL transparently draw on top of it (unless you are using 32-bit color depth and you’ve enabled the appropriate setting in lv_conf.h).
I understand what you mean, I made a new attempt, but it still shows up abnormally.
This is my configuration:
#define LV_COLOR_DEPTH 16
#define LV_COLOR_16_SWAP 1
#define LV_COLOR_SCREEN_TRANSP 0
#define LV_COLOR_TRANSP LV_COLOR_LIME
This is my original picture:
On this page(
https://littlevgl.com/image-to-c-array ), I chose true color chroma keyed
When I select true color instead of true color chroma keyed, it displays correctly
