Rounded corners on backdrops

Hello all!

I've been trying to figure out how to make a frame with bevelled edges, but the backdrop background has corners sticking out. How would I go about getting rid of the corners?

Create the image with the background colour you want or create a second texture for the background and don't set a backdrop.

Just to clarify, are you talking about the part with the icon?

If you are using :SetBackdrop(), use insets to hide the corners.

I thought the border(s)/icon was a single image and you were using a backdrop for the background. What Seerah said.

Hi all,

some weird question passing by...

Last time, I tried pretty much all of what I could do to see what differences the insets actually make on :SetBackdrop() function and I honestly could've not figured it out.
(I definitely had bgFile and edgeFile set as well as the size...)

So, could anyone please show me an example of the frame with insets?

Thank you!

Code:

frame:SetBackdrop({

        bgFile = [[Interface\ChatFrame\ChatFrameBackground]],

        edgeFile = [[Interface\Tooltips\UI-Tooltip-Border]],

        edgeSize = 14,

        insets = {left = 4, right = 4, top = 4, bottom = 4},

})
