GDI+ draw transparency/opacity?

[bleh]

Hello

I want to draw a circle on a background picture but i want transparency in it. Is there an easy way to do it?

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GDIPlus.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 735, 121, 192, 124)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

_GDIPlus_Startup()
$hBitmap = _GDIPlus_BitmapCreateFromFile(@ScriptDir & "\shit.bmp")
$hGraphic = _GDIPlus_GraphicsCreateFromHWND($Form1)
_GDIPlus_GraphicsDrawImage($hGraphic, $hBitmap, 0, 0)

$ellipse = _GDIPlus_GraphicsCreateFromHWND($Form1)
$hBrush = _GDIPlus_BrushCreateSolid(0xFFE0A0FF)
_GDIPlus_GraphicsSetSmoothingMode($ellipse, $GDIP_SMOOTHINGMODE_HIGHQUALITY)
_GDIPlus_GraphicsFillEllipse($ellipse, 10, 10, 40, 40, $hBrush)

I could also use a colored rectangle picture instead of _GDIPlus_GraphicsFillEllipse if that would be easier.

Use $hBrush = _GDIPlus_BrushCreateSolid(0x80E0A0FF) to enable alpha channel transparency.

Oh god.... I didnt even realize there was an alpha channel in it. That's what happens when you copy from the examples without looking for every detail. Shame on me.
Thank you.
