Thanks for that, oh well I was hoping it was going to be a simple
property I have to set :(
Image creation is not my strong point, I can create an (what just
about passes for an Icon) and when I save it, it does have a
transparent background, so I take it thats the Transparency of the
icon sorted, so I would just have to deal with REALbaisic then?
Out of curiosity, does Realbasic support transparency in images
without adding Masks?
Thanks

The transparency in a .png is not automatically supported. I
believe you
need to use the mask property of a picture to create a transparent
picture which means creating a mask image for the toolbar icon as
well.
Dim p As Picture
p = New Picture(32,32,32)
p.Graphics.DrawPicture MyIcon,0,0
p.Mask.Graphics.DrawPicture MyIconMask,0,0
Then set the image property from the picture.
You would do the same thing to draw a transparent picture in a
Canvas or
an icon in a BevelButton

I'm having major problems, trying to put a transparent png as
the Icon for a toolbar item, for some reason it makes the
background white (this also seems to happen for a Canvas
background as well)..
I've looked through the Language Reference and cannot see any
option there, I've also tried *.gif and *.psd's, but all have
the same effect. The only workaround I can see is to take a
screen shot of the app, then use the toolbar background
colour as the background for my icons.
Thanks
