    Arrow [HELP] Using 32 bit Icons with alpha masking

    Guys...

    i'm trying to create an application using 32 bit alpha Icons. But kinda stuck with icon rendering (shadow). the icons not displayed properly on either picture / image box..

    a good icons usage function (rendering/alpha masking) to show the icons will be much appreciated... a useful link concerning this will also be great...

    sorry if it were such a newbie question


    regards,
    Ranjang

    I'm using VB 6

    How are you 'rendering' your 'icon'? What do you mean by icon?

    Have you tried learning BitBlt? It allows you to draw picture with a transparent area.
    If what I said was helpful, give me rep!
