AScomp	Posted - Sep 16 2024 : 12:24:17 Hi, with the Paint Brush Demo I was already able to test the Paint functionality of ImageEn. However, I would like to draw directly on the desktop. To do this, I want to create a transparent form and draw directly on it (needed for a screen recorder software). Is this generally possible with ImageEn? The ImageEnView doesn't seem to have a "transparent" property, at least I haven't found a corresponding property. Best regards Andreas Kind regards Andreas

xequte	Posted - Jan 09 2025 : 19:50:40 Hi Andreas The other option would be to use a TImage instead of a TImageEnView. ImageEn supports loading directly to a TImage (or a TBitmap displayed in a TImage), see: http://www.imageen.com/help/Advanced_Helper_Methods.html Of course, you'd need to implement your own brush code.

AScomp	Posted - Jan 07 2025 : 18:36:04 Hi Nigel, thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it is not applicable to me, because drawing should also be possible over changing forms such as video players. There is no other option with ImageEn? Kind regards Andreas
xequte	Posted - Sep 17 2024 : 00:21:18 Hi Andreas No, the TImageEnView control cannot be made transparent, so you'd need to capture an image of the desktop and use that as your TImageEnView background layer (layer 0). Nigel Xequte Software www.imageen.com
