Dear Antonio,

I saw on directory fw\bitmaps there are many png files

we have support for it

How we can show it trasparent into a dialog ?

Did you try using TImage?

EMG

YES

it is no trasparent with this files

You are right. The effect is only partially transparent. I don't know how to get the full transparency effect. Antonio?

EMG

Me neither, but we will discover it

Dear Antonio,

Here is the source code that, maybe can help you. With it I can display 32bits bitmaps under windows XP.

Best regards,

Toninho.

typedef int (_stdcall *ALPHABLEND) ( HDC, int, int, int, int, HDC, int, int, int, int, BLENDFUNCTION);

static ALPHABLEND pAlphaBlend = NULL;

void DrawAlphaBlend( HDC hDC, HBITMAP hBitmap, int iCol, int iRow )
{
HDC hDcMem;
BITMAP bm;
HBITMAP hBmpOld;
RECT rct;

BLENDFUNCTION bf;

pAlphaBlend = ( ALPHABLEND ) GetProcAddress( LoadLibrary( "MSIMG32.DLL" ), "AlphaBlend" );

GetObject( ( HGDIOBJ ) hBitmap, sizeof( BITMAP ), ( LPSTR ) &bm );

hDcMem = CreateCompatibleDC( hDC );

hBmpOld = ( HBITMAP ) SelectObject( hDcMem, ( HGDIOBJ ) hBitmap );

bf.BlendOp = AC_SRC_OVER;
bf.BlendFlags = 0;
bf.SourceConstantAlpha = 255;
bf.AlphaFormat = AC_SRC_ALPHA;

pAlphaBlend( hDC, iRow, iCol, bm.bmWidth, bm.bmHeight, hDcMem, 0, 0, bm.bmWidth, bm.bmHeight, bf );

SelectObject( hDcMem, hBmpOld );

DeleteDC( hDcMem );

}


HB_FUNC( DRAWALPHA )
{
DrawAlphaBlend( ( HDC ) hb_parnl( 1 ), ( HBITMAP ) hb_parnl( 2 ), 0, 0 );

hb_retl( 1 );
}

Toninho,

Thanks!

Antonio,
I not understand ...

Silvio,

You can use it instead DrawBitmap() function. But it displays only 32bit bitmaps with transparencies, not png files. Maybe maestro Antonio can optimize it for us
