Hi
I have created a imagebuttonclass. But how can I make the icons transparent - like the other buttons in c4d?
It seems that c4d has no problems with png images that have an Alpha channel, but the default background for this seems to be white - if I could change this to the backgroundcolor, these problems would be solved...
thanks anyway

I always use TIF files, and if you look at other plugins, including the main c4d resources, you'll see all TIF files, these should be uncompressed also.

I'm using an uncompressed TIF file with an alpha. But, when I draw it in a User Area, using DrawBitmap, I still get the white portion around it. Is there anything I must do to make it interpret the alpha?

Thank you Samir
Its a shame that so many things are NOT DOCUMENTED!!

I my COFFEE documentation, I only have this:

BMP_NORMAL
Standard scaling by the operating system. Fast but
low quality when using uneven scaling factors.

BMP_NORMALSCALED
Scaling with sampling for high quality. Slow.

BMP_DARKEN
Darkens the bitmap (like the activated
palette icons in CINEMA 4D).

BMP_EMBOSSED
Embosses the bitmap (like the grayed
palette icons in CINEMA 4D).
