    Hey Friends I just created a sample application with Ribbon UI and trying to edit main.bmp (which is a 32bit bitmap) which is displayed as a button on top left of the ribbon / application. Now i have paint brush application which supports upto 24bit bitmap and when i edit the main.bmp (which has black background and mfc writen over it), and compile the application, the button image gets a black background and gets distorted. Any idea how to edit it properly or some 32 bit editor? Regards

      Sounds like an alpha channel issue. If you can set the black background to transparent that should solve the problem. Photoshop should do the trick. Or Gimp.

        Or Paint.NET[^]. :)

          I was needing to make a 32-bit bmp a short while ago. I don't remember Paint.NET supporting it.

            I use the free, super-fast IrfanView[^] to save images with a transparent background. We usually use PNG format for this.

              It doesn't, it only supports 8bit and 24bit BMPs. At least in saving. Don't know about loading. It supports 32bit PNG's of course.. There might be a plugin for it though

                Open Visual Basic, drag and drop some controls, copy and paste some code, and press play.
