Cristobal, no. It seems that the routine to build the bmps from the page-emfs for the listview not be able to read correct the emf with included alpha-bmps!?

Can you put an image?

You see on this pictures the effect. EMF cannot handle transparency (MSDN)! In GDI-plus there are a class to handle EMF with transparency.

On the right hand side you see the EMF, which is properly displaying the alpha images.
So, EMF can handle alpha images.

What you comment is about the bitmaps displayed in the left side image list. That is an issue with our conversion of emf to bitmaps.

Mr. Rao, you are right! The problem is also on some (but NOT all) JPGs.
An other wish: On class GDIBmp is the handle named "hBmp". On other picture-classes the handle is named "hBitmap". So we cannot use this class for Imagelist,...!

Add this line in GDIBmp class

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

ACCESS hBitmap INLINE ::hBmp

I have tested this function to make hBmp from the EMF-File, but very slow. We should have a better function to load EMFs. There are in GDI+ classes for metafiles. My capabilities are to small to handle this.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

Function hBmpFromX( cFile, nWidth, nHeight )     //emf-file, width, height
   local hBmp
   local oBmp
   oBmp:= GDIBmp():New(cFile)
  if !obmp:is32Bits()
        obmp:Conver24to32Alpha( .t. )
  endif
    IF ( !Empty( nWidth ) .or. !Empty( nHeight ) )
        oBmp:Resize( nWidth, nHeight )
    endif
    hBmp:= oBmp:GetGDIHbitmap()
    oBmp:End()
Return hbmp
