[vb6]Alpha Image Control v2 - Final Update (15 Jan 2012)

1. ok, Here something odd...

2. Quote "As mentioned before, you can use Pre/PostPaint events"

1) the control's .Width & .Height values are in the control's container's scalemode. The .ScaleWidth & .ScaleHeight properties are always in pixels and is same as AlphaImgCtl9.Picture.Width & .Height when control is same size as the its image. The typGDIpImage .Width & .Height properties are the actual image's width/height in pixels.

2) Set the WantPrePostEvents property to true. You then have to respond to the PrePaint and/or PostPaint events of the control to draw onto the control. The custom button sample project has an example and the ControlGDIp.rtf file has some documentation. PrePaint fires before image is drawn to control; PostPaint fires after image is drawn but before control is visibly updated
