    Talking yet another newbie BitBlt question

    This might have been asked 10000 times before.
    I have a picture (as attached), with white around it. How on earth (very simple example if poss ) can I get the white around this character to be the same as the background colour / pic of the form please ?!?!?!?!?!?

    Thanks,
    Totally stumped / Alex

    Look here: http://vbden.tripod.com/articles/invmask.htm

    You must have a mask (black character, white BG). Then, blit the MASK on with MERGEPAINT and the SPRITE (what you DIDNT attach ) on with AND.

    No, not many. I was thinking of doing a few theory ones, examples and cool effects you can get with minimal code. I'm rewriting my BitBlt one, and then I'm going to continue it. You'll be able to find it (eventually) at http://sastraxi.crystal-rain.com/

    Okay. Here's a program I made to help illustrate the use of MergePaint and SrcAnd. I've found out why it never works - vbMergePaint seems to be different than MERGEPAINT from the API. You should try the one from the API sometime though, it's a multiply blit!
