Transparent picture boxes?

[Obsidian]

Can you not just do...

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    ' Center the form.
    Move (Screen.Width - Width) / 2, (Screen.Height - Height) / 2

    ' Move the picture on top of the other controls.
    picTest.ZOrder
    picTest.ScaleMode = vbPixels
    picTest.AutoRedraw = True
    picTest.Picture = picTest.Image

    ' Trim the picture.
    TrimPicture picTest, &HFF00FF

    ' Move the picture on top of the other controls.
    picTest2.ZOrder
    picTest2.ScaleMode = vbPixels
    picTest2.AutoRedraw = True
    picTest2.Picture = picTest2.Image

    TrimPicture picTest2, &HFF00FF
End Sub
