CXTPToolBar > 16-color?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'd like to use toolbar images in a CXTPToolBar that have more than 16
colors.  Is this possible with the current CXTPToolBar? 
There is no LoadBitmap() member function, and LoadToolBar() loads a
toolbar resource template, which Visual Studio forces into 16-color
format.

Looking over the archived messages in this forum, it appears that some
people were using CXTToolBars with images greater than 16-color, but I
could not find CXTToolBar anywhere in the 9.1.0 source.  Has that
class been deprecated/replaced?

I'd really like to user high-color images in my CXTPToolBars.  The
rest of the application looks fabulous, but the 16-color images make
the toolbars ugly and look out-of-place.

Thanks for any help.

Santos

	Just replace res/toolbar.bmp to 24bit/32bit bitmap.

	I think your top left color of bitmap has no transparent - background color... If so you can manually set mask color to be used: call XTPImageManager()->SetMaskColor(RGB(...)); before loading toolbar.
