Labels Graphic Picture Transparent Image
Hi,
I hope someone can help me here, and I have explain myself clearly.
The project I'm build is Label stickers, what the software does is allow user to print labels stickers with selected text, and pictures. Selecting background color of the labels and color for the text. The picture color background will be the same as the backgournd label color, and the picture color will be the same as the text. Thus having the software print out the labels with the text and picture with selected colors.
I have tried using .GIF transparent to print the labels, on the screen it displays the corrrect color, but when printing, you will notice the difference between the label background color and the picture color background (the picture BG is alot lighter than the Label BG).
Is there any way or any dll or ocx library that allows me to change the picture color and picture background.
example picture
Any suggestion would be great.

Transparent Image Or Picture
Hi everyone,
I am dragging the image control in visual basic 6 and put it in the form and tried to set it to transparent but I coud not find the right property to do this. Also I tried it with the picture control and could not. Can someone help or give a hint in how to make the image or picture control transparent (I mean you can see other buttons or texts through the image but can not click on the buttons and textboxes). Thanks for any hint or help.
Picture Box Help (Overlaying A Transparent Image)
I'm sure this has been answered a gazillion times, but I could not find the precise thread that answers this. I have a picture box that contains a background image. I want to overlay a .jpg image on top of this; the .jpg image is a company logo that should be displayed with a transparent background, so that the background image shows through the lettering.
Flipping A Picture (GIF) With Transparent Pixels In Image Control
Hello!
Before I say that it's impossible to do, I wanted to be sure.
I will closely describe my goal, first:
loading an Image control with a GIF file with transparency results in an object that is transparent in some areas, though it still responds to mouse clicks on these areas. A picturebox, however, does not allow this feature.
I want to have an image with its own picture flipped, without losing the transparency features. Is it possible?
(Please only let me know if it is impossible, I am not interested in doing a workaround at this time.)
I already tested BitBlt. It loses the transparency information.

I tried to get my labels to be completely transparent as well by setting the backstyle=0. They take the color of the form.
So if I set my form BGcolor to red, the form will be transparent and the labels bgcolor will be red, even though the backstyle = 0 (transparent). What a shame. Anything wrong w/ my sub?
VB.NET - Transparent Labels?
Hey all,
I've been using VB.NET for about a week now, have a couple books (both by Que), and most points on the conversion are going ok.
The one major problem is the conversion of a program that has an image control behind labels. In VB6, the BackStyle was set to Transparent to allow for the image to come through. Some of the labels were also changed to Opaque at some times and given a certain BackColor, which can be done in .NET with no problem.
The problem, that even the help files mention, is the background when set to transparent will just take the form's background color and set the backcolor of the label to the same color, even with any controls underneath it. I still cannot find a solution to set labels to be transparent and let controls show through at design time. There must be a way to solve this easily... labels are the most used controls and need this kind of flexibility.
Hopefully this is an easy question for someone out there.
Thanks,
Brian
Transparent Rotated Labels?
I need some type of label control that can rotate 90 degrees, but also can have a transparent background.
Why?
I want to make a rotated list of items that can be scrolled via the up-down keys, so the labels need to be able to be changed on-the-fly. Sounds silly, right? Well, I need it, so any help is good help.
Right now, I'm using this control: http://www.mvps.org/access/modules/mdl0048.htm (its for VBA, but works fine in VB). The only problem is it doesn't have a transparent background, which is its major downfall.
Any help?
DropShadow On Transparent Labels
Good day,
I was wondering if it was possible, with an API, to create a black shadow (similar to dropshadow in Photoshop) on white forecolor, transparent labels ?
Many thanks
Head's Up - Transparent Labels In .Net
For those of you VB6'ers who may be interested. I have found a way to efficiently (i.e. no overhead to speak of) produce transparent labels under the .net framework.
I know this has been a major bone of contention lately, so I thought I'd better let you guys in on it.
Its a bit of a mess but the code is yours to play with as you wish.

I've searched for this and I couldn't find it in this forum or on the site.. but I need to know HOW TO make the Label Transparent, No don't tell me to change the color to this and that and make it look like it's transparent but it's not.. cause say if i have a form where I have the background set as a gradient type or simpler yet, have a custom image in the background.. and I want to put Text on the form.. and I want it to be transparent rather then the same dull color... Transparent so you don't see the background color, just the foreground (text) color... Please help.. thanks...

Transparent Form And Transparent Image
I'm a little stuck in this problem:
I need a form to have a form shaped like a circle...
...there is no problem in making the form transparent,
but I need a picture (a ball, could be .gif or .png) to be
on that form without having the background of the .gif.
The .gif has already a transparent part, but
there is still the background of that picture box.
Has anyone an idea?

Graphic Image Save
Hi,
I have a problem with coding up a program like this. I'd like to open a bitmap image (.bmp) and put it in a format like this: All the pixels of the picture are one of the 16 QB colors so 2 pixel color information fit into 1 byte. I want to just write the image in that way to a file. No headers, no compression, no nothing, just plain pixel and color infos.

Graphic Help: Placing Font On Picture
Okay.. I've drew a line on form with this code:
VB Code:
me.Line (150, 200)-Step(ex, ey), vbWhite
Its all good, I have No problem. But I also wanted to print front on form too, and place it anywhere as I wish following x and y coordinate. just like one in picture;
My first thought of this method is doing this:
VB Code:
Me.Line (95, 95)-Step(12, 7), vbWhite Print "testing"
It worked, but I still need some opinion because I am sure there is another way around instead of using line strings code?
If in case, that's the only method to do that, can anyone tell me how do I write code to change fonts and the color of this string?

How Do I Print A Picture With Labels On Top Of It???
Hey all,
I've managed to get VB to print my picture however at runtime this picture also has various labels on top of it. (the picture is a blank 'flight pass' and the various labels grab info from other forms to complete the flight pass)
however when i print using:
Code:
printer1.paintpicture image1.picture, x, y
printer.enddoc
the printer does not print the captions ontop of the pic. how do i add them into the code so they will also print (in their current positions on the form) ????

Picture Boxes, Labels, And Transparency
Ok, I'll explain the whole problem because there may be several ways to
solve this and hopefully someone knows one. What I'm doing is creating
a specialty template editor, similar to say a corel draw (but for
specific uses). What I need to be able to do is import graphics and
text and then move them around the background until they are where I
want them and then export it out as an image file.
The problem is that I need to be able to move text over an image and
vice versa. Labels always go behind a picture box when you move them
regardless of Zorder so I tried putting each label in its own equally
sized picture box. That solve that problem, now the text can go over
the other images where necessary. But this causes a new problem.
Picture boxes don't have transparent backgrounds so if I move text over
an image, you can't see behind the text to the image, you see a big
white (or whatever background color is) block. I tried putting an all
transparent gif in the picture box then putting the label over top that
but it didn't seem to work.
I've seen these issues in the newsgroups before but none of the answers
really matched what i'm trying to do.
Thanks in advance!

Printing ImgImage.Picture With Labels
I have a program that displays a health inspection certificate in an image control. Two labels (lblLabel.BackStyle = transparent) display on top of the picture, and are used for the "fill-in" parts of the certificate (i.e. "This restaurant, 'McDonald's', passes all health codes", with 'McDonald's' appearing in one of the labels).
The point of all of this is to be able to print a certificate with the individual client's information on it. So far, my code will only print the image (the drawing of the certificate), and won't include the text in the labels on the printed document. Do the labels have to be "grouped" to the image control? Should I use a PictureBox instead?
I've zipped some basic code, with the labels set to permanent values (typically the labels are either populated by entering new data or opening a database, but this is just to keep it straightforward). Save the included crappy drawing of a certificate to your C: drive. Thanks.

Transparent Picture
I´m making a program to design cards and I need to add some symbols (they are in bmps) on the main picture, but the symbols are triangle shaped so ther is a region that should be transparent, but I can´t manage to do that, i tried overlay with Imagelists but doen´t let me specify coords. What can I do?
Transparent Picture Box
How can I make a transparent picture box that "floats" over an existing one? I need it as a container for a lat/long grid system which the user can then toggle as visible or not.
One solution I found on the net was:
Private Sub Form_Activate()
MousePointer = 11
Picture2.PaintPicture Form1.Picture, 0, 0
Picture1.PaintPicture Picture2.Image, 0, 0, Picture1.Width, Picture1.Height, Picture1.Left, Picture1.Top, Picture1.Width, Picture1.Height
Picture1.Line (1, 1)-(Picture1.Width - 1, Picture1.Height - 1), , B
MousePointer = 0
End Sub
(obviously I have used my own names for the pictures etc., and the above code is attached to a command button rather than 'form activate'.
Using the form supplied with the code does indeed produce a transparent picture box (it's surrounded by a white box so you can see it) but when I plug the same procedure into my program I get an 'Invalid Picture' error.
