Background and Transparency in Version 5.0

Barry: if you meant me, no, in that case I used a modless form without tabs. Finally, I draw a new picturebox and then the image worked great. I deleted the old one.

Fred:
I use this image inside of the list of my ODCL.
TabControl -> Heigth = 432 - Width = 244
PictureBox -> Heigth = 413 - Width = 244

I created this with OpenDCL 4.1.2.2

I see you're using JPG. I had not so nice experiences in using JPG. In some cases good looking images are changing after importing into OpenDCL Studio. That's why I asked.

That reminds me... as far as I know you never did attach the requested samples of failing images to your old bug report about this.

Ooops ... I'm getting older and older.

Owen, was it a bug report on sourceforge? I cannot find it...
Nevertheless I send an example for imagine:

Image 1 shows the icons during design time.
Image 2 shows the same form after saving, closing and reopen.
Image 3 shows the result in AutoCAD.

I also attached the original files.
I tested it with bmp, too with the same result.

Good news! This problem should now be fixed (but you'll have to re-import the images). The problem was that they were being placed into a temporary image list set to the "default" color depth. I changed it to always use 32-bit color depth, and this appears to have resolved it.

That sound great; Owen!
Thank you!
