1. I assume arsd-minigui library does not support transparent

with transparent areas on a button, but those transparent

Well, I tried forwarding the flag, I can custom draw it this
way but the standard Windows button's normal draw doesn't
appear to care...
There might be a trick I just don't know, but the problem is I
don't know it lol.
Thanks for the reply and the help.
FWIW, DWT which uses native controls on windows can show
transparent pngs and also both image & text at the same time.
However I had to add the following app.exe.manifest file in the
same folder as the app.exe file. Otherwise it only shows text or
image but not both. Not sure if this helps, but just want to let
you know. Honestly I have no idea how this works under the hood.
