Hello Kambiz,

I ahve a problem with loading backgroundimages in nodes with png:

In SimpleGraph1ObjectInitInstance I do:

Code: Select all

            PNG    := TPNGObject.Create;
            TRY
              PNG.LoadFromFile(pnodebackgroundfile);
              TGraphNode(GraphObject).Background.BitMap.Assign(PNG);    //Convert data into bitmap
            FINALLY
              PNG.Free;
            End;


Backgroung show up and all looks fine with background-transparent.
When I save the sgp I get a quite huge filesize.

When reloading the sgp the transparence dissappear and background looks solid white.
When I use the nodeproperty dialog derived from the demo and reapply the background image, I get transparence again.
And when saving the file gets much more smaller than before. And it loads again with transparency.

In TNodeProperties.ApplyChanges the background is load with this:

Code: Select all

        if Backgnd = 1 then
          Background.LoadFromFile(OpenPictureDialog.FileName)


But when I try this:
TGraphNode(GraphObject).Background.LoadFromFile(pnodebackgroundfile);
It does not load/show.

Note sure where my mystake is.

Hans-Peter

Hi,

I am not sure but I guess because you assign the PNG image to the background as a bitmap, later the background saves the image as a bitmap too.
Did you try to assign the image directly to the background?

Hello,

Yes, I tried it to assign it directly but then it did not Show.
Mabe I made different mistake somehow.
