#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LAnimationWindow::EnableTransparency(bEnable=TRUE, clrTransparent=RGB(0,0,0), nIndex=ANIM_ALL_ITEMS)

L_BOOL bEnable;	/* flag that indicates whether to enable transparency */
COLORREF clrTransparent;	/* transparent color */
L_UINT nIndex;	/* position of the bitmap list item */

Sets the transparency parameters to be used with playback for the bitmap item at position nIndex inside the bitmap list.

Parameter	Description
bEnable	Flag that indicates whether to enable or disable transparency. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	TRUE	Enable transparency.
	FALSE	Disable transparency.
clrTransparent	COLORREF that represents the transparent color to use for animation playback.
nIndex	Position of the bitmap list item. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	ANIM_ALL_ITEMS	[-1] Set the delay for all items in the bitmap list
	>=0	Set the delay only for the specified item

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

Passing nIndex = ANIM_ALL_ITEMS will cause all the bitmaps in the list to be set.

Example

/*
   The following example will change the transparency information
   for odd numbered items in the animation list using EnableTransparency,
   then reads the new information using IsTransparencyEnabled.
