draw a circle over a background image

[oren]

Hello ,

I'm tring to draw a circle over a background image but its seems that the background imagealways over the circle

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
GUICreate("backgammon",800,600)

GUICtrlCreatePic ( "BackPic.jpg", 1, 1,800,600,"",0x00000080) 

$a = GUICtrlCreateGraphic(220, 10, 100, 100)
GUICtrlSetGraphic(-1, $GUI_GR_MOVE, 50, 50)

    GUICtrlSetGraphic(-1, $GUI_GR_COLOR, 0, 0xff)
    GUICtrlSetGraphic(-1, $GUI_GR_PIE, 50, 50, 40, 30,360)

GUISetState(@sw_show)


while 1
    WEnd

What can I do?

try this from the help file remarks for GUICtrlCreatePic.

If a picture is set as a background picture, as the other controls will overlap, it's important to disable the pic control and create it after the others controls: GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DISABLE). This is not enough for Tab or Listview control which behave differently. In this case you need to create the picture with the $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS style, GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_ONTOP) is necessary for the Tab, TreeView or Listview control.

and create it after the others controls

Thanks, Dont know how I missed, But I need to make some controls after I make the background, The controls are dynamic , In the program run I need to delete some controls and create some, depending on the user inputs, What can I do? Thank you

P.S

It still does not work

I'm not sure if your two posts are related. You could draw right on the picture if you used a png instead. You will have to put a image called "test.png" in your script directory, but below demonstrates my thought on this.

GUICtrlCreateGraphic() is painted always at bottom layer by design.

So I think you should use some GDI API functions for painting of your rectangle and label over picture.

Look into latest beta and its WinAPI UDF.

Edit:- Take a look at this udf you might find it usefull although its called icons it uses other formats like jpg as well http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=92675&hl=icons&st=0

p.s. dont forget to use the forum search tool yourself.

Thank you all I made it with THIS

Really thank you.

Different approach can be to use Windows GDI API drawing functions inside WM_PAINT for drawing your graphic primitives.

It's very simple, you can look at my Radar project where I draw red cross over GIF image by this technique:
