Dialog Box With Image Background

[Charles Pegge]

Demonstrating how to decorate dialog boxes with a background image. This example is based on Roland's translucent.o2bas

The technique is to load an image to the dialog's client area in response to a WM_ERASEBKGND message

Code: [Select]

    case WM_ERASEBKGND

      RECT r
      GetClientRect hDlg,r
      GetImage( hDlg,r,"../images/mud.jpg" )
      InvalidateRect( hDlg,@r,0 )
      return 1
