I have a balck, half transparent 32 X 32 icon. is there a way to apply it to every thing as an overlay or something similar.

it is to simulate darkness and so I would really appreciate some help.
Use an area, set the layer to something very high, use mouse_opacity to remove it from blocking everything underneath from being clicked.

Ok thanx. muchly appreciated. works fine. thankyou for being very clear with your solution because I have noticed latley that some replies are hard to understand caused by text talk or watever it called lol rofl lmao cya
Covering client.screen with it would be the most straightforward method. Just create one object with a screen_loc of "SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST" and add to to the screen.
