Title: Form Opacity
Post by: Petrus Vorster on November 01, 2012, 11:51:19 AM
First, thanks for all the help this far.

How do one set the opacity for a form?
In VB.net one can set it to any percentage.
OR
Is there a way one can make a PNG image stand alone like a form?

This is difficult terrain!
:o

PNG image stand alone like a form.... maybe add a FireImage control to a form, add the PNG, and maximize the FireImage to cover the entire client area of the Form via the WM_SIZE handler. Set the form to have no borders or caption bar.

HI

I tried that, but the PNG has "corners" and shows, but i will experiment more.

Patrice, I admire your work!
I saw some form samples at Jose Roca's.
You are an artist like no other!
Excellent Work.
