I was wondering about transparent statics.
There is a post on here but it's not in IWB.

Anyone got an example of how to make one?
Thanks,
Andy.
@CTLSTCTRANS added to style
The transparent static controls work by copying the contents of the parent window into their background. If the background changes you'll need to invalidate the static control using this style either by using SetControlText, SetFont or SetControlColor to force it to repaint.
Larry,
Thanks for that one, looks like it's not documented.
What I was really trying to do was to drag some text (static control) over a region button and for that static to take on the background of the region button.
Pity.
Andy.
