I am trying out an icon which has a lot of transparency in it. What I’ve noticed is that in the app browser, there is a really odd looking square shadow behind my small and thin icon. When I place the icon onto my Launcher, however, it appears as intended, with only a slight shadow based on the actual outline of the icon.
Anyone have this, or hopefully a solution?

I should add that i have all the correct icon sizes and names:
icon-ldpi
icon-mdpi
icon-hdpi
icon-xhdpi

I’m guessing that that’s the darker version that shows up as the “over” image when you tap it shining through because of all of your transparency.

No actually, this strange shadow is there as is. If I tap it the whole thing goes slightly darker of course but the shadow is always there… [import]uid: 92709 topic_id: 35787 reply_id: 142356[/import]
Try filling in the transparency with white (or whatever color) space and see if that works. [import]uid: 147322 topic_id: 35787 reply_id: 142357[/import]
My previous icon had a background which covered this shadow. But I really want to use transparency and many app icons out there work well so I don’t know why this happens. And it only happens in the app browser of the phone. The launcher is all good. [import]uid: 92709 topic_id: 35787 reply_id: 142358[/import]
