.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / April 2007How do I set pixels to transparent in the VS 2005 resource editor?
Can't find how anywhere - and I've searched the help and googled.  Signaturethanks - dave david_at_windward_dot_net http://www.windwardreports.com Cubicle Wars - http://www.windwardreports.com/film.htm Hi Dave, Sorry. I'm afraid I haven't understand what you are looking for so far. Would you please clarify for me? I appreciate if you can provide some more detailed information. Also I'm glad to assist you. Have a great day, Sincerely, Wen Yuan Microsoft Online Community Support =============================== When responding to posts, please "Reply to Group" via your newsreader so that others may learn and benefit from your issue. =============================== (This posting is provided "AS IS", with no warranties, and confers no rights.) Hi; I want to make some of the pixels in an icon transparent so that whatever is under that pixel is displayed.

Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply. You can use "Erase Tool". Pixels painted over by Erase Tool will be displayed as transparent. Another way, you can click the Screen-Color selector or the Inverse-Color selector and apply the screen or inverse color onto your image using a drawing tool(Pencil, brush). http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x40c0ykd(VS.80).aspx [Creating Transparent or Inverse Regions in Device Images ] About what is screen or inverse color, you may reference the following article. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/82cfdhe3(VS.80).aspx [Colors Window ] Hope this helps. If you still have anything unclear, please feel free to update here. I'm glad to assist you. Sincerely, Wen Yuan Hi; I read both links but while they talked about transparent, they did not say how to make a pixel transparent. I tried using the erase tool but it is a large block and it cannot set single pixels which I need as we have color around pixels we need transparent. How can I set single pixels to be transparent? Is there a way to change the size of the erase block?

[quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Sincerely, > Wen Yuan Hi Dave, You can set single pixel using the "Pencil" tool. Choose the "Screen-Color" and then paint your image with pencil. 1. Select "Color Selection Tool". 2. Choose "Screen-Color" in the colors window. 3. Select "Pencil Tool". 4. Set single pixel which you want to make it as transparent. By the way, I'm afraid there is no option we can use to change the size of the erase block. If you still have any questions, please feel free to let me know. I'm glad to assist you. Have a great day, Sincerely, Wen Yuan Hi; I can't find a way for the pencil tool to select transparent as it's "color." How do I do that?

The "screen-color" represents "transparent". Screen color will be displayed as transparent on your ico file. You can select "Pencil" tool and choose screen-color. About what is Screen color, please have a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/82cfdhe3(VS.80).aspx [Colors Window] 1.Select "Pencil" tool. 2.Choose Screen Color. Please let me know if you still have anything unclear. I'm very glad to assist you. Have a great day, Sincerely, Wen Yuan Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh - ok I'm an idiot. Works great.
