In color parameter use BGRAPixelTransparent in unit BgrabitmapTypes

Oh, I already had tried this

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.  //bmp := TBGRABitmap.Create(AParent.Width, AParent.Height, $00616161); // *** TODO: transparent ***  // Wiki sample:  clBtnFace
2.   bmp := TBGRABitmap.Create(AParent.Width, AParent.Height, BGRAPixelTransparent); // *** TODO: transparent ***  // Wiki sample:  clBtnFace

[lainz]

bmp.Draw(ACanvas, 0, 0);

Try the last parameter with true or false.

[d7_2_laz]

Ah, i see, optional 4th parameter Opaque, defaulted to true.
Unfortunately it doesn't change anything here.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.     bmp.Draw(ACanvas, 0, 0, False);  // False or true, no difference here

[lainz]

Can you share a small demo project, showing the issue?

So we can test and try?

[d7_2_laz]

@Lainz,i think i found it!  -         ->   Using “bmp.FillTransparent”

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.     bmp.FillTransparent;      // !!!!!!
2.     bmp.TextOut(Rect.Left + aLeftOffs, Rect.Top + 2, AText, AFont.Color);
3.     bmp.Draw(ACanvas, 0, 0, False);
4.

No one else is sharing?

Hi
Well ok then...
This little app started life as a small tool, for me to keep track on the wife's internet-shopping-portals logins & passwords etc. 
I started coding the backend and did the testing in a small console-app, because that's easier & quicker 
Then I thought, 'what the he**' why not kick it, while you're at it...
So, this /little/ app turned out to be:
1) a showcase for programming the 'MVVM'-pattern, literally.
2) a showcase for simple, yet effective use of ...tadaaaa: the 'Crt'-unit.
3) a showcase for the use of my 'Plugin-framework', very aptly named:
    P.I.S.S (P)lug(I)n (S)ervices (S)olution 
4) a proof of the concept behind both 'MVVM' & 'Plugins'.
5) showing off 'fine grained' encryption via 256bit hashed Rijndael algorithm.

I'm right now, coding the /gui/-frontend and again, I thought 'wthn', why not make it look like its cli-cousin?!? 
It is harder than you think!
Oh, and it's blazingly fast.
The rest of the pics comes in next post...
Regards Benny

Hi

I know this may all look dated and childish to you all, but here it is anyway...

Does this count??? 

95% finished, done during last weekend. need to finish and tidy code up.
Will share when finished, so others can test and fix for other OS's.
Due to limitation of attachment size, will need to put on git or somethimg, compiled size is <5mb on win, which includes all the sound and images graphics (in the resource files).
it uses bgrabitmap, uos for sound.
