Ive been programming in VB6 for years, i figured its time for an upgrade. Here's what im doing, and what the problem is:
Im loading a bunch of pictures on top of one image. They are all PNG files, and some of the images have transparent edges, and some semi-transparency within the image itself.
So basically, i need to be able to load these images on top of the other images, and still maintain the transparency.
Is this possible in VB08? This is one of the main reasons i moved to 08 from vb6, more things possible including multithreading.

View 1 RepliesI am in a bit of a situation here, because the default webbrowser control freezes my application.I'm trying to load the data of a website into structures/classes and update them ever 5 seconds. I am now using webbrowser controls, by delegate-creating them and using them in my threads.The problem is, that all those webbrowsers count up and lag my application terribly. Every 5 seconds it is impossible for the user to control the program; it freezes.
Does anyone know of a thread-friendly webbrowser/control that can:
- Disable navigation to certain urls (navigation events)
- Give events on document completed
- Return an html document (not text)
- Does not lag the program when navigating

I am working on a Screenshot Taker project, my project captures the screenshot and saves, but to save it a saving dialog shows up, and you have to select where to save it, file name, and bla bla bla; I don't want it to be like that, I want the saving thing be silent, I don't want the dialog to show up, like I want everything to happen from behind the seens.

There should also be a button labeled "Paste" which will paste a valid path (copied into the Clipboard) into a textbox .
