    Question MFC : CBitmapButton with a transparant color

    Hi,

    I use pictures instead of CButton with this component : http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/controls...cle.php/c5163/


    But I need to add a transparant color, I wanted to use this code : http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1025767

    But it's not to MFC,

    Does someone have a solution to modify the component I gave above ?

    Thanks all.

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    I've just been working on this myself. You need to nominate a particular colour in the bitmap to be the "transparency colour". In my case, I chose 100% green and I used this code which I modified from some code I found on MSDN....

    In your class - or header file...
    Code:
    const COLORREF RGB_BLACK	  = 0x00000000L;
    const COLORREF RGB_WHITE	  = 0x00FFFFFFL;
    const COLORREF RGB_RED		  = 0x000000FFL;
    const COLORREF RGB_GREEN	  = 0x0000FF00L;
    const COLORREF RGB_BLUE		  = 0x00FF0000L;
    const COLORREF RGB_LIGHTGRAY = 0x00C0C0C0L;
    // Define any others you need.
    
    // The colour inside this button's bitmap(s) that should be regarded as transparent
    COLORREF m_kTransparentColour;
    
    // The thresholds for red, green & blue 
    short		m_RedThreshold, m_GreenThreshold , m_BlueThreshold;

    In your CPP file...
    Code:
    // Initialise the transparency colour
    // and thresholds for this button.
    m_kTransparentColour = RGB_GREEN;
    m_RedThreshold			= 100; // Adjust to your own requirements
    m_GreenThreshold		= 132; // Adjust to your own requirements
    m_BlueThreshold		= 80; // Adjust to your own requirements
    The actual code....
    Code:
    void YourClass::DrawTransparentBitmap(HDC hdc, HBITMAP hBitmap, short xStart, short yStart, COLORREF kTransparentColour, bool bAssume100Green)
    {
    BITMAP	bm;
    COLORREF cColour;
    HBITMAP	bmAndBack, bmAndObject, bmAndMem, bmSave;
    HBITMAP	bmBackOld, bmObjectOld, bmMemOld, bmSaveOld;
    HDC		hdcMem, hdcBack, hdcObject, hdcTemp, hdcSave;
    POINT		ptSize;
    int x, y;
    
    	hdcTemp = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
    	if (HGDIOBJ hOldObj = SelectObject(hdcTemp, hBitmap)) // Select the bitmap
    		DeleteObject(hOldObj);
    
    	GetObject(hBitmap, sizeof(BITMAP), (LPSTR)&bm);
    	ptSize.x = bm.bmWidth;		  // Get width of bitmap
    	ptSize.y = bm.bmHeight;		  // Get height of bitmap
    	DPtoLP(hdcTemp, &ptSize, 1); // Convert from device
    										  // to logical points
    
    	// Create some DCs to hold temporary data.
    	hdcBack	 = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
    	hdcObject = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
    	hdcMem	 = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
    	hdcSave	 = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
    
    	// Create a bitmap for each DC. DCs are required for a number of GDI functions.
    
    	// Monochrome DC
    	bmAndBack = CreateBitmap(ptSize.x, ptSize.y, 1, 1, NULL);
    
    	// Monochrome DC
    	bmAndObject = CreateBitmap(ptSize.x, ptSize.y, 1, 1, NULL);
    
    	bmAndMem = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdc, ptSize.x, ptSize.y);
    	bmSave = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdc, ptSize.x, ptSize.y);
    
    
    	// Each DC must select a bitmap object to store pixel data.
    	bmBackOld	= (HBITMAP)SelectObject(hdcBack, bmAndBack);
    	bmObjectOld = (HBITMAP)SelectObject(hdcObject, bmAndObject);
    	bmMemOld		= (HBITMAP)SelectObject(hdcMem, bmAndMem);
    	bmSaveOld	= (HBITMAP)SelectObject(hdcSave, bmSave);
    
    	// Set proper mapping mode.
    	SetMapMode(hdcTemp, GetMapMode(hdc));
    
    	// Save the bitmap sent here, because it will be overwritten.
    	BitBlt(hdcSave, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcTemp, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
    
    	// If we're assuming a 100% green background (the normal case) set all
    	// pixels that are green or "very nearly green" to be exactly 100% green.
    	if (bAssume100Green)
    	{

    	BitBlt(hdcObject, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcTemp, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
    
    	// Now, if we're assuming a 100% green background, make
    	// absolutely sure that any 100% green pixels are converted

    	if (bAssume100Green)
    	{
    		for (x = 0; x < ptSize.x; x++)
    			for (y = 0; y < ptSize.y; y++)
    			{
    				COLORREF pixel = GetPixel(hdcTemp, x, y);
    				if (pixel == RGB_GREEN)
    					SetPixel(hdcObject, x, y, RGB_WHITE);
    				else
    					SetPixel(hdcObject, x, y, RGB_BLACK);
    			}
    
    		// Now change the green background colour for the supplied
    		// bitmap to be the colour that we want for transparency.
    		for (x = 0; x < ptSize.x; x++)

    			{
    				COLORREF pixel = GetPixel(hdcTemp, x, y);
    				if (pixel)

    			}
    	}
    	else
    		SetBkColor(hdcTemp, cColour);
    
    	// Create the inverse of the object mask.
    	BitBlt(hdcBack, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcObject, 0, 0, NOTSRCCOPY);
    
    	// Copy the background of the main DC to the destination.
    	BitBlt(hdcMem, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdc, xStart, yStart, SRCCOPY);
    
    	// Mask out the places where the bitmap will be placed.
    	BitBlt(hdcMem, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcObject, 0, 0, SRCAND);
    
    	// Mask out the transparent coloured pixels on the bitmap.
    	BitBlt(hdcTemp, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcBack, 0, 0, SRCAND);
    
    	// XOR the bitmap with the background on the destination DC.
    	BitBlt(hdcMem, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcTemp, 0, 0, SRCPAINT);
    
    	// Copy the destination to the screen.
    	BitBlt(hdc, xStart, yStart, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcMem, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
    
    	// Place the original bitmap back into the bitmap sent here.
    	BitBlt(hdcTemp, 0, 0, ptSize.x, ptSize.y, hdcSave, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
    
    	// Delete the memory bitmaps.
    	DeleteObject(SelectObject(hdcBack, bmBackOld));
    	DeleteObject(SelectObject(hdcObject, bmObjectOld));
    	DeleteObject(SelectObject(hdcMem, bmMemOld));
    	DeleteObject(SelectObject(hdcSave, bmSaveOld));
    
    	// Delete the memory DCs.
    	DeleteDC(hdcMem);
    	DeleteDC(hdcBack);
    	DeleteDC(hdcObject);
    	DeleteDC(hdcSave);
    	DeleteDC(hdcTemp);
    }
    The main bit I added was support for "assume 100% green". All this does is to look at colours that are "almost 100% green" and turn them into precisely 100% green. If you use a different colour, you'll need to adjust m_kTransparentColour (and the RGB thresholds) to suit your own requirements. It takes quite a long time to get this right BTW – so be prepared to experiment…!


    [Edit...] Incidentally, the parameters xStart and yStart will both be 0 in most cases.

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    As an alternative, take a look at CDC::TransparentBlt().

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    And what about CBitmapButton ?

    I finally choose using this component, it really easier to use !

    Is it possible making it transparent ?

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    Yes - use the code that I gave you above. That's exactly what I was doing... You need to call it in DrawItem() and OnPaint() - selecting the appropriate bitmap to pass to the DrawTransparentBitmap() function.

    The main problem is that you have to nominate a particular colour as the transparency colour. This sounds very easy in theory - but in practice, most graphics packages (DrawPlus / Paint / PhotoShop etc) don't export the exact colours that you define. In my case, 100% green would come out as "not quite" 100% green - so I needed to correct this in the source bitmap. However, it is possible. I managed to make it work extremely well.

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    Must I declare transparent color I want ?

    Isn't it possible getting the transparent of a pixel given ? (by it's X, Y position) ?

    Not as far as I know - though someone might correct me about that.

    Talking Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    lol !

    I'm really bad ! I don't see how using your code

    Code:
    void CTransparentBitmapButton::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDIS)
    {
    	CBitmapButton::DrawItem(lpDIS);
    	DrawTransparentBitmap(
    
    }
    what are these parameters :
    HDC hdc, HBITMAP hBitmap, short xStart, short yStart, bool bAssume100Green ?

    Sorry being so bad !

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    Okay, sorry - here's how to call the function....

    Code:
    // From 'OnPaint()
    void CTransparentBitmapButton::OnPaint() 
    {
    	if ((GetParent()) && (GetParent()->IsIconic()))
    	{
    		CBitmapButton::OnPaint();
    	}
    	else
    	{
    		CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting
    		
    		// At least onw bitmap must be loaded before calling 'Paint()'
    		ASSERT(m_bitmap.m_hObject != NULL);
    
    		// and we'll assume until we find otherwise, that
    		// the button is being drawn in its normal state.
    		CBitmap* pBitmap = &m_bitmap;
    
    		if ((!(IsWindowEnabled())) && (NULL != m_bitmapDisabled.m_hObject))
    			pBitmap = &m_bitmapDisabled;
    
    		DrawTransparentBitmap(dc.m_hDC, *pBitmap, 0, 0, m_kTransparentColour, true);
    	}
    }
    
    
    // From 'DrawItem()'
    void CTransparentBitmapButton::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDrawItemStruct) 
    {
    	ASSERT(lpDrawItemStruct != NULL);
    
    	// At least onw bitmap must be loaded before calling 'DrawItem()'
    	ASSERT(m_bitmap.m_hObject != NULL);
    
    	CBitmap* pBitmap = &m_bitmap;
    	UINT state = lpDrawItemStruct->itemState;
    
    	if ((state & ODS_SELECTED) && (NULL != m_bitmapSel.m_hObject))
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapSel;
    	else if ((state & ODS_FOCUS) && (NULL != m_bitmapFocus.m_hObject))
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapFocus;
    	else if ((state & ODS_DISABLED) && (NULL != m_bitmapDisabled.m_hObject))
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapDisabled;
    
    	DrawTransparentBitmap(lpDrawItemStruct->hDC, *pBitmap, 0, 0, m_kTransparentColour, true);
    }
    I'll be out for the next couple of hours - but leave a message saying how you got on.

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    ok, thanks

    I was near your code !

    Looking the code of CBitmapButton in afxext.h then in winbtn.cpp, my code was .....
    Code:
    void CTransparentBitmapButton::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDIS)
    {
    	CBitmapButton::DrawItem(lpDIS);
    	
    	HBITMAP pBitmap = m_bitmap;
    	UINT state = lpDIS->itemState;
    	if ((state & ODS_SELECTED) && m_bitmapSel.m_hObject != NULL)
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapSel;
    	else if ((state & ODS_FOCUS) && m_bitmapFocus.m_hObject != NULL)
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapFocus;   // third image for focused
    	else if ((state & ODS_DISABLED) && m_bitmapDisabled.m_hObject != NULL)
    		pBitmap = &m_bitmapDisabled;   // last image for disabled
    
    	DrawTransparentBitmap(lpDIS->hDC, pBitmap, 
    
    }
    I'll use yours then I'll answers you.

    thanks a lot for your help !

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    First Set your Button Style OwnerDraw.Then use CBitMapButton Class and Create Object of your CBitmap Class Associate them with your Dialog Control and now do what ever u want
    some few lines will helps you
    Code:
    CBitmapButton m_btnAdd;
    DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_BUTTON_UPDATE, m_btnAdd);
    //now load the state of your button 
    m_btnAdd.LoadBitmaps(IDB_ADD_NORMAL, IDB_ADD_PRESSED, IDB_ADD_FOCUSED, IDB_ADD_DISABLED);
     m_btnAdd.SizeToContent();
    that is enough for your code.
    Thanx.

    I don't see how your code help me making a CBitmapButton transparent
    Could you explain ... ?

    thx

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    @ John E
    ------------


    Ok, If I understand a little, your code allow some threshold to make the transparency, I'm simply using one colour to make transparency, I think I'll remove this possibility,

    but, when I modify by calling your function with the parameter bAssume100Green to "false" transparency seems working

    I successfully get the Dialog Background, the originally but not the one I put with this code :
    Code:
    BOOL CMyDialog::OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC)
    {	
    
    	CBitmap Bitmap;
        CDC MemDC;
      
    	Bitmap.LoadBitmap(p_iIDD_Background); // lecture bitmap dans les ressources
        BITMAP InfosBmp;				// structure d'informations.
        Bitmap.GetBitmap(&InfosBmp);
        MemDC.CreateCompatibleDC(pDC);	// creation d'un DC en memoire
        MemDC.SelectObject(&Bitmap);	// selection du bitmap dans le DC en memoire
        // transfert final du bitmap dans le dc de la view.
        pDC->BitBlt( 0,0,InfosBmp.bmWidth, InfosBmp.bmHeight,
                         &MemDC,
                         0,0,
                         SRCCOPY); 
    
    	return TRUE;
    }
    How merge the tranparency with this background ?

    Re: MFC : Make a bitmap with a transparant color

    There is already a TransparentBlt function.
