How to add a picture as a background..

[Manjish]

Hi,

I am sick of the plain colors as GUi backgrounds.. I have this nice texturized backgroung image. How Do I apply it to my GUI as the background!! I want to do a GUI like this image:

with edit boxes in plain white and background in texturized blue..

Like this...

GUICreate("My GUI")
GUICtrlCreatePic( @ScriptDir & "\MyPic.jpg", 0, 0 400, 500)
GUICtrlSetState( -1, $GUI_DISABLE) ; VERY IMPORTANT
; also create the edits and inputs as needed
GUISetState()

thanks that worked!! But i have another problem..

How do I make the background of gui items transperant?

Like in below image, the labels have their own background color which is making the gui look bad.. how do i make this transperant so that my bk will look proper? I know guictrlsetcolor() won't do the job..

Use

GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1,$GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT)

Just after creating label

Hi thanks this is working fine for labels.. But doesn't work for input boxes.. any ideas how I can apply the same for input boxes and edit controls too?
