GIF Transparency

[Lord_Doominik]

you have to do it like this:

;create LayerGUI
$LogoGUI = GUICreate("Logo", 400, 100, (@DesktopWidth - 400) / 2, 150, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_LAYERED, $mainGUI)
$Logo = GUICtrlCreatePic("Logo.gif", 0, 0, 400, 100)

GUISetState()

this works...

You need to make each picture frame-by-frame (each saved in .gif format) then use a program like UnFREEz to put them together in one gif sequence.

Never heard of this method. I always just use a program to make an animated gif. Make each layer and it groups them for me. I use Xara Xtreme not expensive and completely worth it.

Also IrfanView doesnt do a bad job with the transparancy, but it still leaves a little ring around the edge.

Or if you have Photoshop CS or CS2 there is a program that comes with it called ImageReady and you can make animations with that

OR you could use Macromedia Flash... $$

See the example 2 in GUICtrlCreatePic in 3.1.1.94.

to have the transparency working you need 2 windows.

I have tried to find the help file for 3.1.1.94, but can't. Where should I look?

EDIT: never mind, looks like example in 3.1.1.95 is the same.
