Greetings fellow MD users. I’ve searched the forum and can’t find an answer. This issue is simple. I want to use my own created image (which displays its own graphical buttons, switches) in an Image Panel. Then I want to create “invisible” control areas atop the image panel I created. The problem I keep running into, is that when you select Hide in Play Mode for any control areas, they no longer work in Play Mode. Please see the attached image which illustrates what I want to accomplish visually.

Hide in play mode is for controls that will not be accessed, such as supporting controls.  There is no design intent for direct interaction with hidden controls.

Maybe try adjusting opacity and display options to minimize the appearance of the selected controls.
