gdk_bitmap_create_from_pixmap-990507.tgz ---------------------------------------- This function creates a bitmap from a pixmap. For instance, when you create a pixmap and do some drawing on it, it might be desirable that the pixmap would be partial transparent. If so, you have to pass a mask (bitmap) to the `gtk_pixmap_new' function. You can use `gdk_bitmap_create_from_pixmap' to create such mask. (By the transparent color you have to pass to as argument, `gdk_bitmap_create_from_pixmap' knows what is regarded to be transparent and can thus build an appropriate mask.) This archive comes in accompany with such sample(.c) to demonstrate this. (To make the affection of the mask more descriptive, alter mask to NULL in line 58 and then compare the results.) Any comments and suggestions are welcome. Regards Frank.Uepping@Cityweb.de
