MonoBmp was all black. DDB was same as my orig bmp. Any ideas? I tried orig bmp which was 256 colors, then tried orig changed to 16 million colors, then tried orig changed to grayscale, then tried orig with Transparancy set (reuired 256 colors), and all same result. --tex Quote: Delphi tip#137: create disabled bitmap http://www.scalabium.com/faq/dct0137.htm ****************************** Back to top Mike Shkolnik Guest Posted: Fri May 21, 2004 9:18 pm    Post subject: Re: Inactive button bmp Quote: Mike, your site is returning 404...

The orig image I used, which failed, had only fuzzy edges of objects. It was done by Graphics Arts co and it looked good at full scale, but #137 could not find the edges to any shapes, and thus, could not show the edges depressed. By hand placing black pixels for shape outline (Paint Shop Pro), #137 did, then, produce the "Inactive" image.
