[2005] [RESOLVED]problem with border transparency

Hi,

I have a form with an image (bmp 16bit) as background.
The transparency is set to magenta...but I have a problem, the magenta color is tranparent but not totally...look at the corner. Any idea to resolve that?

Bye

Create region and assing it to the forms region instead of using transparency.

Hum sorry but how can I do that :confused:

You create GraphicsPath which will be the shape of your form and then you can creat the region easly with the path and assing it to the forms region.

Solved with that,

Code:

Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D


Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        'Dim windowRegion As Region
        Dim regionPoints(10) As Point
        Dim regionTypes(10) As Byte
        regionPoints(0) = New Point(14, 0)
        regionPoints(1) = New Point(682, 0)
        regionPoints(2) = New Point(684, 1)
        etc...

        Dim Cnt As Long
        For Cnt = 0 To 10
            regionTypes(Cnt) = PathPointType.Line
        Next Cnt
        Dim regionPath As New GraphicsPath _
            (regionPoints, regionTypes)
        Me.Region = New Region(regionPath)
    End Sub

Thanks

I am glad to hear that.
