Mmh, just wondering if anyone actually tried to make a transparent toolbar based on a maskcolor (Yes, I could just make command buttons and put 'm in a row but that kinda would negate the functionality of a toolbar ;))

What's transparanet, the picture backgrounds, or the toolbar background?
background color..
(Having this small feeling naggin' in my head screaming UserControl ;))
Aside from a vague idea about layered windows and alpha-blending using a colour-key... I'd say Usercontrol too ;)
So far I know the Toolbar doesn't even have a Hdc so layered windows and alpha-blending on hdc is kinda like quein' the mission impossible theme :D
Guess I got my work cut out for tonight :D
Well you use the hWnd not the hDC. But it doesn't work for anything but top-level windows.
Aye; I'll go for a usercontrol and make my own lill' toolbar when I get some free time :)
pls if you have this toolbar, i'll like to get one
