I have been puzzling over how a bitmap sometimes paints for a long time, I have a circular image (of a LED) that I want to have a transparent surrounding to as the LED is round and the surround is square.
In this case, I have 5 images in a Timagelist, and switch the one I want using code like if imageindex=0 then imagelist1.GetBitmap(0,image1.picture.bitmap); if imageindex=1 then imagelist1.GetBitmap(1,image1.picture.bitmap); In test programs it works as expected, but in the actual program there is always a white square around the image. I have finally found the culprit - if XPManifest is added its seems to interfere with the settings to do with transparency, ie if its there I get the white border instead of it being transparent. Anyone come across this and have a workaround?
