I'm drawing a bitmap to a user-area, but the image can get messed up if the dialogue window is dragged partially offscreen. See pic: image
Hmm....the picture doesn't display below. Can't you post images to this forum?I can use re-draw to clean-up the image, but I can't find any system messages inside C4D that occur because a dialogue window is dragged around that I can use to trigger the re-draw.
Anyone know how to avoid this problem?
Thanks

Hi terrachild,
can you please show the code you use to draw the bitmap?

Here is the draw function:
def DrawMsg(self, x1, y1, x2, y2, msg) : w, h = self._bmp.GetSize() destination = w, h drawType = c4d.BMP_NORMAL self._bmp = camera_image_1 self.DrawBitmap( self._bmp, x1, y1, destination[0], destination[1], 0, 0, w, h, c4d.BMP_NORMAL | c4d.BMP_ALLOWALPHA )
Also, I haven't been able to get an image drawn (.png) that displays the alpha.
Is there a trick to getting transparency to work properly?Thanks

I can not reproduce this. What I tried:
import c4d class UserArea(c4d.gui.GeUserArea) : def __init__(self, bmp) : super(UserArea, self).__init__() self.bmp = bmp def DrawMsg(self, x1, y1, x2, y2, msg) : self.SetClippingRegion(x1, y1, x2, y2) if not self.bmp: self.SetPen(c4d.COLOR_BG) self.DrawRectangle(x1, y1, x2, y2) return w, h = self.bmp.GetSize() self.DrawBitmap( self.bmp, x1, y1, w, h, x1, y1, w, h, c4d.BMP_NORMAL | c4d.BMP_ALLOWALPHA) class Dialog(c4d.gui.GeDialog) : def __init__(self) : super(Dialog, self).__init__() self.ua = UserArea(None) def CreateLayout(self) : self.AddUserArea(1000, c4d.BFH_SCALEFIT | c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT, c4d.BFV_SCALEFIT) self.AttachUserArea(self.ua, 1000) return True def main() : fn = c4d.storage.LoadDialog() if not fn: return dlg = Dialog() dlg.ua.bmp = c4d.bitmaps.BaseBitmap() dlg.ua.bmp.InitWith(fn) dlg.Open(c4d.DLG_TYPE_ASYNC) # Just make sure the dialog stays alive, nasty hack # and should not be done in production. c4d.__dlg = dlg if __name__ == "__main__": main()
Does this version work for you?
Need to check on the alpha.-Niklas

I tried that by running it in the 'Script Manager' and the same thing happens to the image if you drag the dialogue off the edge of your desktop, and then drag it back. The image gets mangled.
Also, what is this line doing, and why should it be avoided in production?
c4d.__dlg = dlg

I did get the 'alpha' to work a little bit.
When you draw an image with an 'alpha' channel, it draws with the dialogue color where the transparency is.
But if you try to draw one image with transparency on top of another image with transparency it doesn't work. The image on top has the dialogue color in the transparent parts not the underlying image.
Anyone ever tried this?
