Dear All,

I need to use BRUSH for background image but how can I set the size (area) of Brush, not full WINDOW/DIALOG?

Thanks in advance,
Dutch

DEFINE BRUSH oBh COLOR 0xF0F0F0

FillRect(oDlg:hDc, {100,100,200,200}, oBh:hBrush)

oDlg:Refresh()

Dear Natter,

May I have a example, if you could?
I would like to get the BRUSH background as this picture (not full client screen, left top and bottom area).

Image brushes

Code: Select all  Expand view

DEFINE BRUSH oBrush FILE/RESOURCE <imageflle/resource> RESIZE / STRETCH
oWnd:SetBrush( oBrush )

This is all that is enough.

The image can be bmp,png,jpg or any other image type
It can be a file or resource.

You try both STRETCH and RESIZE clauses separately and decide what you prefer.
I personally prefer RESIZE and recommend instead of STRETCH.

The entire window is covered by the brush and will automatically resize when the window is resized.
Do not write any extra code more than what I suggested.

Dear Master Rao & Natter,

I got an idea now.

Thank you so much,
