Visible chat disables transperency in GUI

Hello,

I am working on an GUI for a Block (in 1.12.2) and want the background to be drawn considering the Alphachannel.

It worked like this :

@Override
	protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float partialTicks, int mouseX, int mouseY) {
		
		int i = (this.width - this.xSize) / 2;
		int j = (this.height - this.ySize) / 2;
		
		Minecraft.getMinecraft().getTextureManager().bindTexture(texture);
		
		GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 0.7F);
		
		drawTexturedModalRect(i, j, 0, 0, xSize, ySize);
		
		GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);
	
	}

 

But I had to discover, that if I or a commandblock write something in the chat the background is drawn without transparency as long as the chat is visible.

After the chat disappears it changes back.

 

I am not enough into minecrafts intern rendering processes to understand what minecraft is doing here.

Could anyone help me with that?

Call GuiContainer#drawDefaultBackground to draw the background.

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

5. Learn to use your IDE, especially the debugger.

Ok I did that but that was just a formal suggestion?

It unfortunatly did not fix it.

As you can imagine it looks now like this :

@Override
	public void drawDefaultBackground() {
		
		int i = (this.width - this.xSize) / 2;
		int j = (this.height - this.ySize) / 2;
		
		Minecraft.getMinecraft().getTextureManager().bindTexture(texture);
		
		GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 0.7F);
		
		drawTexturedModalRect(i, j, 0, 0, xSize, ySize);
		
		GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);
	}

plus the call in

drawScreen()

 

like this :

 

@Override
	public void drawScreen(int mouseX, int mouseY, float partialTicks) {
		drawDefaultBackground();
		...
	}

Ok I did some research my self in the Minecraft Sourcecode and I found a possible solution:

 

In Minecrafts method for rendering the chat called 

drawChat()

The method

GlStateManager.disableBlend();

is called.

As one can see in this OpenGl Wiki article this is what took the transparency from my background as long as the chat is visible.

 

Therefore I fixed it like this:

GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 0.7F);
		
GlStateManager.enableBlend();
		
drawTexturedModalRect(i, j, 0, 0, xSize, ySize);
		
GlStateManager.disableBlend();

GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);

 

Hope this is the or at least one right way to do this. If this is not the case please tell me.
