I agree :) Good workaround. All that code to do it kinda makes me feel like I'm not getting anything out of GDI+ though :rolleyes: I posted sample code on MS site as well just for the heck of it. I do think it's a bug though. Mark

The link[^] It hasn't generated much interest yet. Hopefully I used the most appropriate forum. There's so many I get bored half way through the list. :laugh:

Ok that was the wrong place to post that question :rolleyes: I reposted here[^] And I thought there was alot of forums at the other one...

Here[^] is an MSDN forum entry that talks about a blue "halo" around images and an admitted bug in the GetHBITMAP function. It is dated from May 2005 so one would figure there would be a fix by now. I will keep looking.

Thanks for the link! I would guess it's a pretty simple bug to fix - maybe it doesn't get reported. It may not be often that we (programmers) need a HBITMAP from a Gdiplus::Bitmap. Still, I never know - I may want to do it tomorrow and it's not going to work :mad: One reply so far on the MS GDI board but it wasn't useful. Thanks for the update! Mark

:laugh::laugh: Thank you! I am SO glad someone else argued with him - I know that's where it was going in my thread on MSDN (with the same guy!). Anyway, did you draw any conclusion from all that? Mark

Yeah, that that guy is extremely stubborn:doh: If he is right, and the result we are seeing is the expected result, then the designers of GetHBITMAP should be shot as it makes absolute no sense.:sigh: I think I will just use my workaround as all I have been able to find on the subject is some people complaining about the bug, but no one being able to point to a hotfix or easy to implement solution (hooking the Gdiplus dll is not an easy solution). I will continue to watch these threads but I will not hold my breath waitng for a solution.
