Hi,

1)see code ./blendings/BlendingAlgorithms.cpp , GrayScaledBlending, use this to have the map tiles
displayed gray scaled.

2)are you talking about the navigation widget, located right - bottom ?
simply move over the widget, right click to open context menu and select "hide"

also see the code in NavigationFloatItem.cpp
// Plugin is visible by default
setEnabled( true );
setVisible( true );

change this to have it invisible by default

3)
to use your own map tiles server use the openstreetmap.dgml, copy to own map folder and rename, edit some settings to match your needs (mapname,downloadUrl, sourcedir,...)

or use Marble to create a map: 
start Marble, open MapThemeWizard by selecting <File - Create new map theme> menu 

If you like to overlay your map tiles on e.g. openstreetmap, see openstreetmap.dgml, section:
texture - hillshading,
this is the way to add tiles with a blending

  Hi all,


  I'm using Marble to create a radar like map for FlightGear..
  WIP = http://i.imgur.com/OD6DCuA.jpg


  few questions..


  1) is it possible to make the map more transparent with a black background//
  In my case I want to fade OSM map to make it darker and more of an outline
  as I am overlaying airports, navaids and flight positions


  2) Controls
  Is it possible to remove the "zoom slider/home button.up down controls"..
  I tried all the set* functions I could find, but found no way of hiding it.. or am missing the obvious


  3) mapnick layers..
  I've also developed a manick/tilecache server to overlay navigation information and using already with OpenLayers in browser..
  How do I integrate my own map layers onto marblemap ?? 

  assume I need a dgml file but cant see any tutorials..




  TIA


  Pete
