Transparent Bitmap/GIF/JPG with one line of code! |
|
| | 
| | | | While surfing the web i found the API for a function named TransparentBlt in C++ and i changed it over to VB. If you like BitBlt, your going to love this. 2 examples on how to use this API, one deals with a transparent animation, and the other is just a basic example using GetPixel API. Enjoy, cause this is a god-sent for me.

"one line of code" is a little
presumptuous, so all the smart asses
out there ready to comment on that, go
away.

well it seems to that a required .dll
file is missing, where is it?

It's just too bad that TransparentBlt
works only under win98+, so it's quite
useless until everyone gets rid of win95

If they don't like your one line of
code for doing transparent stuff, hit
them with your 2 or 3 line of BitBlt
code to do it. Works under all windows

Thank you for all the comments and
votes =) I'm sorry, but i didnt
realize that the "Msimg32.dll" is a
win98/NT/2000 thing... (darn 95
users... UPGRADE ALLREADY!!! =) it is a
DLL that is only 52k in size, so if you
use this function, just include the
"Msimg32.dll" in your install. Don't
have it? I uploaded it for
you:

Good Code, One Line and all...But one
problem...sapz the memory real bad and
doesn't give it back...so if you use
this function repeatedly...vb will shut
down on you...any idea's on how to fix
this because I like the speed and the
unlimited capture size.

Nice code. How could we function
without all those cry baby critics
whining about your one line. Mouse I'd
hate to see what they'd say if you code
didn't work. Mouse your link to
http://www.mouse-industries.com/msimg32.
zip doesn't work as of 3pm Atlantic
Time. I look forward to seeing the
whole thing in action.
Thanks,
derrick

I'm using VB6 SP4 on Win2K.
and I'm
trying to use transparentblt()
function. It works fine in VB IDE but
after I compiled it and run it as an
EXE file. The image wasn't shown...how
come?

I thought I'd found something really
useful until having worked on my
project to hunt down a memory leak I
found it that it was caused by the .dll
