asked on

controls that have transparent areas

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to create controls that act like Microsoft Word's auto shapes so the control must have a transparent area, for example, a cricle, the remaining area outside the circle must be transparent
I tried some API fuctions "CreateRectRgn", "CreateEllipticRgn", and "SetWindowRgn" but they work with forms only and I can't use them with user controls
PLEASE help me it's very important to me
thank you for your patience
