Transparent Bitmaps on AxCADviewX1 ?

Post by Andy_1a » 24 Nov 2010, 13:02

As a new user to CadviewX I need to show transparent Bitmaps(png) on CADviewX.

I tried without success (Button, Picturebox...)
success with RectangleShape1 with Backgroundimage, but only on the Form, NOT on CAD Control.

thanks for testing

Hello.
CADViewX import bitmaps as ImageEnt objects. Transparency must be set for such objects. Unfortunately current CADViewX version doesn't provide programming access to ImageEnt objects. Because of this you can't set transparency until API will be widened.

Thanks,
but as yet without success.
I want to show this transparent bitmap over an SVG:

The pixel position is calculated before. It should look like:

Hello.
Current CADViewX version doesn't allow set ImageEnt transparency. We need add correspond property to library API at first.

Hello Andy.
I was thinking you need transparent part of CADImage, not transparent control. Sorry.
