[Jeremy Coulter]

I should have said in my original message, I dont want to use regions.   The method I have in minde is where you tell the forms canvase to be invisible.   Jeremy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Stacey Verner Sent: Friday, 31 March 2000 12:36 To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: RE: [DUG]: Transparent Forms Use Regions.   Something like:     procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject); var   NewRgn : HRGN; begin   NewRgn := CreateEllipticRgn(10,10,width-10,height-10);   SetWindowRgn(handle,NewRgn,false); end; Look at http://www.hwb.com/gruhn/programming/tutorial/clear.html for a good tutorial on this.   Stacey   -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Coulter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 31 March 2000 12:31 To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: [DUG]: Transparent Forms Hi all.   I seem to have forgotten how to make forms transparent.   I DO remember that it has to be in the OnForm.Paint event, and that Brush.style:=bsClear is in there, but I forget the other part.....   Cany anyone remember ??   Cheers,     Jeremy Coulter (Software Manager) Triton Commercial Systems Ltd 6a Burdale Street Christcurch Phone +64 3 3483973 Fax   +64 3 3431613 Cell   021 2533214
