Browse with transparent background

Hello Jimmy
the screenshot is exact what I need, but I don't have SL1. So I think I will try it with XOANON.

I don't know if it is possible to combine XOANON and eXpress++.

I think he has a competitive product and that it doesn't include source code.

I never cease to wonder at the amount of time that is wasted by "programmers" that do not keep their tools up to date and then spend hours trying to drive nails with a screw driver.

Terry -

Your wisdom and grace is so much appreciated here.

but I don't have SL1.

so why not update ?
if you have v1.9.331 you can download SL1 "Patch*** ", @ Alaska Website, for "free" !!!
(*** "Patch" does not have "visual Style" ...)

So I think I will try it with XOANON.

do you have Codejock ?
i have try Codejock Listview and it´s Methode

Code: Select all

::oListView:ForeColor := GRA_CLR_GREEN
::oListView:BackColor := XBPSYSCLR_TRANSPARENT

but like Browse Background is "black" or "white" ...

than i found SendMessageA() with CLR_NONE

Code: Select all

#define CLR_NONE              0xFFFFFFFF
#define LVM_FIRST             0x1000
#define LVM_SETBKCOLOR        (LVM_FIRST+1)
#define LVM_SETTEXTCOLOR      (LVM_FIRST+36)
#define LVM_SETTEXTBKCOLOR    (LVM_FIRST+38)

   ::hList := ::oListView:hWnd

  SendMessageA(::hList,LVM_SETTEXTBKCOLOR , 0, CLR_NONE )
  SendMessageA(::hList,LVM_SETBKCOLOR     , 0, CLR_NONE )

which look like this

Hello Jimmy,
thank you for the sample, so I think I will wait for Codejock, seems to be the best way.

Hello Roger, Terry,
changing a single part of something makes absolut no sense for me at this time, I have to update XBase++ and all tools at one time to send out new versions once to my customers. It has also other organisational reasons why I have to wait. So Jimmys advice is the correct for my situation, to wait till I can update all my tools and integrate Codejock. And you can believe me, it is not funny to work with older versions and to see what can be done and what problems can be avoided with actual versions. So it is not the "programmer", it are the circumstances that are causing this situation.
regards
Rudolf
