i have a program were you import a image with a red back and the red disapeers and turns transparent using this code. But it uses a bitmap as a image holder and bitmap does not support transparacy. So i need a image bitmap so i dont know what else to do

I have a code that takes the pink out of a image and makes it transperent. So its just the image no color around it. How do i make a shadow for that image like below to make it look like it has its own shadow?
View 9 RepliesI am developing a small windows application(vb.net) in vs2005.I will have a grid view that will keep on refreshing for every 5 seconds.For that grid, I want to set a background image which I can do.But my problem is, while refreshing the grid image also get refreshed which make the form unpleasant to view. So, I try to make the grid backcolor as transparent so that I can utilize the form background image which will solve my problem. But I got the error message that, we can not set the grid back color to transparent. Is there any way to achieve this.
View 2 RepliesQuestion 1: i can't manage to get the back of a label to be transparent, so i can see an image underneath.
I have this
CODE:
And it isn't working...
Question 2: I have removed the border of the form, but want to have what is left (the main content) to be a particular shape. Is that possible or do i have to have it rectangular?
Is it possible to change the back color of a form to transparent? I don't want to use transparent key. Because I want to put a semitransparent picture in a picture box and there is a big problem with transparent key. The semitransparent pixels show the transparent key color.
View 8 RepliesI can't remember exactly if this is possible or not but what I am attempting I would think should theoretically be possible. I know it is possible in WPF but the company I am working for doesn't want to make the transition just yet. Basically what I want is to use a background image on a form for the background and I have a docked control on the right and left. I have set the background on both of these docked controls to transparent however it is showing the back color rather than the background image. I tried, rather than setting the background image property, to override the onpaintbackground and onpaint events and use e.graphics.draw(picture, me.clientrectangle) but it still seems to just pick up the backcolor as the true transparent background so I'm wondering if it's possible to get it to show the background image through the control rather than the backcolor of the form?
View 3 RepliesI have to import a tab delimited file into Excel and export it back out to correct a formatting issue caused by FoxPro. I need to pad a column with 10, Zeros and that is good with this here: objxl.columns("B:B").numberformat="0000000000". However I have 2 cells in the sheet, row 1B and 2B that I want to exclude from the number format above. Because it is a date field and it writes to that same column so it pads my date. I do have a need to Pad that date field with mmddyyyy so I have to pad it 8 - zeros.
View 5 RepliesI made a picture box and imported an image named Title.jpg. Later I made adjustments to the picture and imported it again without deleting the original(mistake). The new one had the name automatically changed to Title1.jpg. So I deleted the original image from resources and renamed Title1.jpg back to Title.jpg.
Now I got two problems. First, only Title.jpg is on the solution explorer, but Title1.jpg(along with Title.jpg) still pops up on the resource list when I click on Image property of the picture box. There's only the name and no picture, and I don't see a delete option. How do I get rid of it? Second, even though I changed the image to the new Title.jpg in the picture box, the old one is displayed when running the app. What's up with that?
I have a black & white image (find below)I want to print that image by clearing the background(i.e black dots in the form of rectagle)If i print the below bank check it is printing completly black (unable to read the content). Pls do the needful. Many Thanks

View 7 RepliesI wish to make a bitmap image (.bmp) transparent using VB.NET code.
View 3 Repliesi know how to make a picturebox have a transparent image within it, and i know how to make forms transparent, but what i cant seem to figure out is how to add an image which has transparent parts to a completely transparent form and have it still look nice. you know when you find images which look really good by them selves, but then look really bad when moved to a different background cause they still have the white border (or any other colour border). is there ANY way which i can accomplish removing this border? its almost like the alpha channel that removes the ugly border, when putting the image on the form, is forgotten about and the colour of the forms background fills in the gap..
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to make an image in a picturebox transparent, so that i can see and click the controls behind it in the transparent area. This reason for this is that i'm trying to make a hexagonal grid that needs each cell to work independantly of each other when clicked, and needs to include a changing image. I'm trying to do this with pictureboxes, but even though i've made the GIF images i'm using transparent in photoshop, They aren't displayed as such in design view or at runtime, as the corners stay grey. I'm making a clone of the Quiz-show Blockbusters
View 6 Replieswhat would be the fastest (best) way to make transparent all pixels in one image that are white on other image?
Let's say that have 2 transparent images (.png) and want to delete some portion of the first image. Pixels to be deleted (made transparent) are defined as white on the other image (some kind of deleting mask).
Me again. I also have a png image and a web cam video in my form. I have transparent parts on the png image that show through to the form background colour.
How do I set it so it shows the video in the background, when I put the png image over the top of the video?
At the moment its still shows straight through to the back of the form?

I have a forms app that contains a panel. This panel contains an picturebox - the user can then drag the picturebox image.
I need to add an image? in the panel that will not move when the user drags the picturebox image.
This image? needs to be transparent so that the picturebox image can be seen though it when drag occurs.
I've tried drawing directly on to the panel but nothing appears. Perhaps what I am drawing is behind the picturebox?
I started off with a VERY simple form and added a picturebox item to it. The code I was following used a procedure in the Form1.vb to override the transparent color of the image:
bmp.MakeTransparent(Color.Fuchsia)
bmp was defined in the Form's "Load" section.
Now things are different. I have more than 20 picturebox items now, each created in the Form1.Designer.vb code as follows:
Me.Tile020.Image = CType(resources.GetObject("Tile020.Image"), System.Drawing.Image)
Me.Tile020.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(922, 297)
Me.Tile020.Name = "Tile020"
Me.Tile020.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(64, 64)
Me.Tile020.TabIndex = 3
Me.Tile020.TabStop = False
The image is referenced from the resources. When I run the program, I'd like all these images to have their backgrounds transparent. None of these controls is currently referenced anywhere in the code at present. What's the best way to get them to display transparently, other than recreating them as transparent .PNG's?
i need to know the code for making images inside my forms slightly transparent so I can still see the form behind it.
View 1 RepliesI am working on my game maker and I need to make it so that a picturebox with a transparent image will show the control behind it, like if the control has a image or just a color.
View 12 RepliesI have a form with two overlapping images. The images are exactly the same size and location on the form. The upper image is a GIF and is set to transparent. I have set the lower image as a parent of the upper as follows:
Me.PictureBox4.Parent =
Me.PictureBox1
The transparency works fine but for some reason the upper image moves to the lower right of the parent image when I run the program.
I have a image with a transparent background. I clone it, rotate it, and save it in a picture box. Works fine (in that I can see the original object overlaid on the background image below it). However, the original unrotated image is also superimposed on the .image layer *with* the rotated one. Try as I can, I can't stop it from appearing.
Curiously enough, if I change the image to non-transparent (a .bmp instead of a .gif, for example), I don't have the problem. Of course, I also can't see the background {:<(

The initial image is Transparent, however, once you create another image very close to it, there is a "box" around it. That "box" is what I am trying to get rid of. I have no clue on how to get rid of it. Yes, I have made the image itself, transparent, as the initial image is transparent. Just any image that makes contact with the other images show the "box".
Is it possible to give an image inside of a picture box a transparent background? Like, for example say i have a red circle on a white background, is it possible to make the white transparent?
View 6 RepliesI am making an operating system based game in visual basic. The real problem is that the game runs full screen and when it comes to desktop backgrounds I am having heaps of problems.First I had the desktop as just the forms background image but I needed to add icons to the desktop so I anchered a listveiw onto the background and the problem is that the listview is not transparent and you can't see the desktop background.
I thought that I could fix that problem by setting the background image on the listveiw as the background image but the problem is when i set a background image on the listveiw there is no option to stetch the image. The only option is to tile the background image.
How can I get the listveiw either transparent or set it a stretched background. ( the user gets to choose a desktop background so they all need to be able to stretch to the full desktop of the user's screen resolution.)
Im displaying an image in a picturebox when i mouse over a button PictureBox1.Image = (My.Resources. Get_Info_icon) But when the mouse leaves the button how do i remove the image and have a transparent background, so u cant actually see the picturebox ?
