Hi!

I´m using the ToolBar and every ToolBarButton has an image connected from a
ImageList.
Every image has a transparent color.

It seems like CF doesn´t support transparency or does anyone know how to set
transparency?

Thanks

Something else that may help as well - I've tried a lot of icon editors and
found that "Axialis Icon Workshop 5.0" is the easiest to use with regards to
creating transparent icons that show up properly in a CF toolbar. In order
to have the icon show up properly in the toolbar (both when enabled and
disabled) I use a 16x16 icon with a 256 color palette.

Email me directly if you need a sample icon that *WILL* show up properly
(w/transparency
intact, etc.) in the toolbar. You can use this icon as your benchmark - if
you get
this to show up properly then others will as well :)

Good luck - let us know if you need anything else.

Hi Joe!

After making my images to transparent icons using Axialis Icon Workshop
(nice pgm) and included
the files in my project as embedded resources, it actually worked!

Thanks
