Maybe if you told us what the error is and where it occurs, we'll be better able to help you.

[WindowsNuclear]

The error occurs when I use the SetAutoRgn(),It simplely say Just not support the form variable.
I didn't know What's wrong with it.
So, I give up the function,Use the Part as a nomal code,It just can't recongnize the Byte Type.
I was confused with it.

Can anybody Knows what's wrong with it?Thanks.

Try replacing Byte with Integer first. If that doesn't work, try using the code from here instead:

This will take a bitmap and use yellow (which can be changed) as the transparency color. You can use it on anything with an hWnd.


Hope that works better for you

This project does the same thing. Uses the first pixel of the pic as the transparency colour.

Thanks for help.

It's lucky I got to the right place.
