Perhaps this is a "first pixel" is the transparent color issue? We fight this all the time. I think CJ lets you set the transparent pixel color, though it might be a "global" setting. Find the CJ code that gets the first pixel and see if it changes for some reason.

We have been moving all our images to PNG to get away from a lot of these types of issues. Even before we moved to CJ we would have issues, especially in the days when bitmaps had color tables because they are not 32 bits. In some cases, we use WIC to convert images to PNG. But even then, you have to get the parameters to the calls correct.

But hey, at least the background isn't black (our most common historical issue).

Hi,

When using icons on tab control CTabCtrl, the icon is no longer transparent (tried using several styles).

with Toolkitpro 17.3

Now with Toolkitpro 18.3

Workaround is to replace the class CTabCtrl by CXTPTabCtrl,

but it should continue working without code changes.
