Exclamation Help with a transparency

Hi, I'm VERY new to coding in XML, and as a first project to try and teach myself, I'm modifying a group window that has all my stats and player window functions built in.

However, I am trying to make a place for the target window to "fit" into. I have seen HotButton boxes and other windows where there is a see thru space built into it that is exactly the right size for another UI piece meant to go with it. How do I get that empty space? I have looked through the XML coding on those pieces that have it already, and I cannot find how they got it to work. I have also looked that the background graphic but it seems solid. What should I be looking for?

way i did it in hail to the king httk 1.06 is ui the alpha channel in the tga grafic file .in the grafic where you want a place thats see threw you would draw in the alpha channel only an make it black .

alpha channel is sorta like a light box.any thing black the light light (grafic) dont show threw .shades of grey would let part of grafic show white all and black none.
