Transparent Button Bitmap

Author	Message
AtLa #1 / 6	Transparent Button Bitmap Im programming an application that is suppost to have standard audio-function buttons with proper images on them, like an arrow for play, a box for stop and so on... I paint them using the rescource editor of VS. The problem is that when i change the color of the desktop in windows the empty parts of the button images differs from the color of the desktop. I need to make the empty parts transpernt. Now, Is there a way for me to paint transperency in the rescource editor (with bitmaps) or is there a way to tell the bitmap-display function to make a certain color transparent when the bitmap is displayed? / Tobias

Tobias, Use the BS_ICON style instead of a bitmap. Icons support transparency, and it's all done for you. Dave ---- My address is altered to discourage junk mail.

Don Grasberg #4 / 6	Transparent Button Bitmap NOT TRUE! You can use the Custom button in the new icon dialog to set any dimensions you want and to use 2,16, or 256 colors.

Niels Hede Pederse #5 / 6	Transparent Button Bitmap The problem with icons is that you can't use any odd size you want, and you are limited to 16 colors. See the LoadMappedBitmap function to use a mask to mask out the parts of the bitmap you want to be transparent. regards, Niels Quote: >>I need to make the empty parts transpernt. >>Now, Is there a way for me to paint transperency in the rescource editor >>(with bitmaps) or is there a way to tell the bitmap-display function to make >>a certain color transparent when the bitmap is displayed? >Tobias, >Use the BS_ICON style instead of a bitmap.
