[RESOLVED] 24bit Bitmaps in an MFC Tree-view Control

Hello all, Thank you in advance. I am writing an application wherein there is a dialog box in which I have placed a Tree-view Control (drag and drop visual control into the dialog box in DevStudio). What I want to know is how do I get the tree-view control to display any bitmaps beyond 4bit Bitmaps.

I would like to utilize greater depth of color and the nicer images that are available these days . . . Any one know how to achieve this?

Thanks again,

Perfect Health and Clarity of Mind,

Victor

Tree control uses image list(s) with the images to display. While creating the image list you can choose also the depth of color. See CImageList::Create with nFlags parameter

Yes, this is true, but the issue with that approach, is that the Create method that accepts the style constant for color depth doesn't allow for setting a transparent mask. And the Create method that allows a transparent mask doesn't allow for color depth. Kind of a catch-22.

Thanks again, though, I do appreciate your time and efforts.

Did you look at the CImageList::Add method?

No, I did not. I have been creating the image list with the image all at once. Very remiss of me. Thank you this works just fine.

Many Thanks,
