 Topic: ImageManager Draw AlphaPosted: 30 April 2009 at 6:41pm |
|
Is there a way to draw an icon (PNG) stored in the ImageManager control onto a hDC with an arbitrary alpha level? If not, is there any chance of such a feature?

Hi Oleg,
I have used the Draw method successfully to draw an icon on an hDC exactly as it appears in the ImageManager, but I don't see any way to change the alpha level arbitrarily using that method...For example:
Draws the image, but I would like to draw it at (for example) 50% transparency...Is this possible? |

Hi,
No, its not possible. You can only create additional image manually and set it as "xtpImagechecked" state fot this image.

If it is technically possible, Adding an extra property to control the alpha level of any icon would be a great feature...For example, it could be used by having a thread to draw a pulsing icon (fade in/fade out), which would not be possible using an extra xtpImageChecked image (and would be a pain to implement by adding dozens of extra icons at various alpha levels).
